Question: A concrete - lined rectangular canal ( n = 0 . 0 1 2 ) is 5 m wide and 2 m deep and laid

A concrete-lined rectangular canal (n =0.012) is 5 m wide and 2 m deep and laid on a slope of 1 per 4000. What is the savings in:
31Lining per km length (m2) if the most efficient proportion for rectangular canal was used for the same discharge, material and bed slope?
32. Lining per km length (m2) if the most efficient proportion for trapezoidal canal was used for the same discharge, material and bed slope?
33. Earth excavation (m3) if the most efficient of all section was used for the same discharge, material and bed slope?
