The following are the different type of canal falls that
may be adopted according to the site conditions:
1) Ogee fall:
This type of fall is provided when the
natural ground suddenly changes to a
steeper slope along the alignment of
the canal.
2) Rapid fall:
This type of fall is provided when
the slope of the natural ground
surface is even and long.
3/12/2019 2
3) Stepped fall:
This fall is suitable in places
where the sloping ground is
very long and requires long
glacis to connect the higher
bed level with lower bed
level.
6) Glacis fall:
In this type of fall the hydraulic
jump is made to occur on the
glacis, causing sufficient energy
dissipation.

The glacis type falls may be divided into two categories:
1. Straight glacis type
2. Parabolic glacis type

Fluming Ratio:
The ratio of the actual width of weir provided to the canal
bed width upstream of the drop is known as Fluming Ratio.

Length of the weir crest (Lt):
This is measured along the axis of the canal, it is
the width of weir crest .

Upstream Side Glacis:
1
The upstream slope of the glacis is to be :1 (H to V)
2
joined tangentially to the weir crest with the radius D/2
=0.94/2
=0.50 m
The upstream slope has to rest on a curtain wall of
0.6m width.

Baffle Platform:
Reduced level of baffle platform = downstream F.S.L – d’x
d’x is the subcritical depth of flow in the channel
below the point of formation of standing wave for
expanding downstream sides.
d’x = HX + dX - HL
where, HX = calculated height of drop
3/12/2019 17
HL = actual height of drop
HL = [u/s F.S.L – d/s F.S.L]
= 11.50 – 9.50
=2.00
dX = 0.985 * q0.52 * HX 0.21
where, dX is the subcritical depth of flow in the canal d/s
side after the formation of standing wave for parallel sides
in meters.
q is the discharge in cumec/m
q = Q/4.5

Cistern depth = 0.1 * 1.50
= 0.15 m
Reduced level of cistern = 8.00 – 0.15
= + 7.85
The top of deflector wall is kept at the canal bed down
stream i.e., + 8.00
The cistern floor will be joined to the top of the deflector
wall with a slope of 1 in 5.
The length of cistern 𝐿𝑓 is generally taken as 5 times of 𝑑𝑥
=5 *1.474
=7.37 m
If canal bed soils are of erodible nature, the length
of the cistern may be increased upto 6 times 𝑑𝑥 .
The second criterion that fixes the length of the
cistern
3/12/2019 is the splay of the downstream wings. 23
The wings are splayed from the baffle wall with a
splay of 1 in 5, such that the distance between the returns
at the end of the splay is equal to the full supply width of
the canal water way.
Assuming 1 to 1 canal cutting, the width of water
way at canal F.S.L
= 6+2*1.5
= 9m

𝐿𝑓 = ∗5

=11.25 m
This fixes the length of the cistern from the baffle wall
upto end of deflector wall.

Upstream Canal Transition:
The upstream canal wings are splayed at 1 in 1.

The length of transition = *1 = 2.25 m

Protective Works:
Revetments And Bed Pitching:
• Upstream side of the drop:
The length of side revetments is taken as 3
times the upstream side full supply depth, i.e., 3*1.5 =4.5m
Bed pitching is generally restricted to half

• Downstream side of the drop:

downstream side full supply depth, i.e., 3*1.5 =4.5m
Bed pitching is generally restricted to half

the length of the side revetments, i.e., =2.25 m

Reduced level of the bottom of the curtain wall
= +11.50 – 2.42 = +9.08
• Checking the downstream curtain wall for scour depth:

1.5 * R =1.5 * 1.22 =1.83 m
Reduced level of the bottom of the d/s cutoff wall
=+9.50 – 1.83 =+7.67

Exit Gradient:
The length of floor should be such that with
the two curtain walls at the upstream and downstream
ends , as fixed above should give a minimum exit gradient
of 1 in 3 in case of clayey soils and 1 in 4 to 1 in 5 in case of
pervious soils, like fine to course sand.

d)Glacis blocks:
The effect of these is to reduce the turbulence in flow
which in turn reduces wave wash, thus ensuring uniform
flow. A single row of glacis blocks of the same dimensions
as friction blocks may be provided in the case of falls with
drop more than 2m.
e)Deflector wall:
𝑑3
The deflector wall of height provided at the
10
downstream end of cistern helps in piling up the bed
material against the curtain wall, which ensures the safety
of the curtain wall. The minimum height should be 0.15m.
The top of deflector wall is joined to the cistern floor with a
gentle
3/12/2019
slope of 1 in 5. 36
Design of Baffle wall and Friction Blocks
a)Baffle wall:
The baffle wall is designed as an R.C. cantilever wall, well
keyed into the baffle platform and cistern platform. The
projected length above the platform will be the length of
the cantilever.
b)Friction blocks:
Each block is taken as a separate entity. The design is the
same as that in baffle wall. The reinforcement of the block
must be sufficiently anchored into the platform concrete.37

Checking the Thickness of baffle platform, cistern
and the glacis:
The Maximum uplift head acting on the floor of the structure
is, when the canal is empty with upstream water level at weir
crest and downstream water level at canal bed level.
i.e., the uplift head = +(10.58-8.00)
= 2.58m
The Key points where residual uplift pressures are to be
determined are:
Under the toe of Glacis
Under the baffle wall

the end curtain wall

while it has a face batter changing from vertical at the start
to 1 in 12 at the end of the transition.
