Summary

In this course, students are acquainted with the knowledge of water supply (methods of calculation of water needs, water supply system - pumping stations and reservoirs, pipe materials, fittings and fittings, etc.) and the development of legislation. In the exercises, the calculation of water demand and design of the water reservoir are practiced on specific examples.

Irregularity of water demand and water planning. 3. Groundwater sources, abstraction and abstraction facilities (horizontal, vertical and combined abstraction facilities). Surface water abstraction (flowing water reservoirs and valley reservoirs). 4. Concept of water supply - territorial scope and distribution of water supply by purpose. Pressure zones. 5. Directional and elevation layout of water supply networks. Use of rainwater, increasing the yield of water sources (transfers, infiltration), protection zones. 6. Basic hydraulics of distribution networks, pressure flow in pipes, pressure losses. Hydraulic calculations in water distribution networks. 7. Objects on the water supply network, fittings, water meters and house connections. 8. Water storage, water tanks (types, equipment, location, construction, calculation of storage). 9. Pipe materials for water mains and their requirements (metallic - grey cast iron, ductile iron, steel and non-metallic - PVC, PE, PP, fibreglass, asbestos cement). 10. Water conveyance by pumping, pumps and pumping stations, surge protection. 11. Design and construction of water supply networks. Pressure testing of water supply networks and corrosion protection. 12. Operation and inspection activities, repair of faults, water losses in pipe network. 13. Act on water supply and sewerage for public use and related regulations.
