    The document summarizes the design of a rapid fall structure for the Parwan Project Phase-I in Jhalawar, Rajasthan. The rapid fall has a gently sloping glacis of 1:10 to dissipate energy through hydraulic jump formation for falls less than 0.6 meters. The glacis and upstream and downstream floors are 1 meter long with the same bed width as the canal section and 1:1.5 side slopes. Reinforced concrete and stone masonry walls are used in the construction with a 2 meter long stilling basin to dissipate remaining energy.

    DESIGN OF RAPID FALL

    ON RMC /LMC OF PARWAN PROJECT PHASE –I JHALAWAR (Raj.)

    Reference:- Theory and Design of Irrigation Structure by R.S.Varshney & Gupta Volume II
    Chapter 8 Page 293

    Design details:- The fall of Western Yamuna canal were of rapid type in which gently sloping
    glacis 1:10 to 1:20 was provided. These were quite successful owing to the fact that the glacis assured
    the formation of the hydraulic jump. Therefore, in RMC/LMC fall having height less than 0.60 m. has
    been designed as rapid type.

    The glacis slope has been provided as 1:10 and 1.0m.long U/S& D/S horizontal pucca floor for
    smooth functioning.

    The bed width in glacis/S and D/S pucca floor has been provided same as the bed width of U/S
    of canal section. The side slope in this portion has been kept same as U/S& D/S canal section i.e. 1:1.5.

    In the bed of glacis ,U/S&D/S pucca floor 0.23 m. soling has been provided over this 0.20 m.
    thick PCC M-10 has been provided .And above this 0.15 m, thick PCC M-15 has been provided.

    In sides of rapid fall 0.15 m. thick PCC M-10 has been provided as base /leveling course ,over this
    PCC 0.30 m. thick R R Stone Masonry in C M{1:5} with 20 mm thick cement plaster has been provided.

    In addition to above provisions 2.0 m. long and 0.60 m, deep cistern has also been provided to
    kill the remaining energy of fall.

    The entire structure is at rest condition/position; hence, no structural design is required.
