    Module I

    Dams-Gravity dams, arch dams, buttress dam, forces acting on dam-theoretical and practical profiles of gravitydam-low dam, high dam-stability of dam-stress in elementary profile of gravity dam. Function of shafts,galleries, keys and water seal.Arch dams-types, forces acting-design methods (Thin cylinder theory only)-Earth dam-Types-criteria for safe design-causes of failure. Spillways-Different types (Design not necessary).

    Module II Diversion head works, layout, functions of components-cause of failure of weirs on permeable soils- Blighstheory-design of vertical weir-Khoslas theory of independent variables-use of Khoslas charts and Blenchcurves.Cross drainage works-different types-Canal falls-classification (brief description only).

    Module III Design and drawing emphasizing the hydraulic aspects of the following structures: 1. Aqueduct 2.Syphon aqueduct 3.Canal Syphon 4.Notch type canal fall 5.Sarda type fall 6.Canal regulators(Khoslas theory)
