Then either naturally occurring vertical / inclined joint plane i.e., attempted to develop a working face. After exposing the working face the rock splitting is affected by using jack Hammers operated by compressed air for putting line-holes for wedging. Alternatively, the rock splitting also can be effected by natural joints (both epi and syngenetic) joints are also helpful in primary rock separation from the mother rock. Separation of primary blocks from mother rock and obtained the block size 320 x 200 x 200 cm. SUB DIVISION OF LARGE PRIMARY BLOCKS INTO SECONDARY BLOCK After primary separation the rock mass will be carefully examined to avoid hair line rocks, mineral segregations and veins etc; the dressing of the rough blocks will be made by clipping the edges and geometrically equaling the edges of the block at the dressing yard. In case of extracting huge size during the stage of rock splitting, such blocks are cut by using Diamond wire-saw to suit the size of gang- saw. The rough blocks obtained after primary cut need to be dressed for obtaining good geometric shape from one primary block two numbers of secondary blocks can be made dimensional shape of 1 to 3m3 in size, and the same measurements are 180x100x60 cm to 200x150x100 cm. Removal/Excavation of O.B. and other quarry waste The O.B. consists of soil and weathered colour granite boulders of various sizes. They shall be loaded into tippers by using excavators. The waste is then hauled to the proposed dump yard on South-western side of the Q.L. applied area A-5 Archana Granites Annexure of Form-1 Production of commercial blocks The main idea is to bring the block to proper dimension after chipping the rough corners. It is done manually using hand held wedges. Flaws like black lines, fractures and penetrative cracks are taken care of at this stage of forming commercially marketable blocks.

  • Optimization of Hydro Management Systems Applying the Ayacut Balancing Principle (ABP)
    © 2019 JETIR January 2019, Volume 6, Issue 1 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Optimization of Hydro Management Systems Applying the Ayacut Balancing Principle (ABP) Dr. Bhagwan Shree Ram and Dr. Narbada Prasad Gupta Professor, School of Electronics and Electrical Engineering, Lovely Professional University, Phagwara Punjab (India) Abstract This paper deals with a new method of River Basin Planning to derive the benefit of irrigation to the maximum extent of Commendable-Cultivable Area (C.C.A) available in a river basin by suitable placement of appropriate irrigation projects at various points on a river in order to minimize the wastage of river water running into the sea, as is the case with the existing irrigation systems obtaining in moist of our rivers. This is due to lack of correct planning for optimization of river water resources for irrigation. A new method is described in this paper to plan for the location of several project sites to make the best water and land resources particularly long water resources. The method brings into light a new principle called the Ayacut Balancing Principle (ABP) around a point called the Balancing Point (B.P). Keywords: Hydropower, renewable energy technologies, infrastructure projects. 1. Introduction In a river basin, the water potential increases from a zero value at the origin of the river to a maximum value at the confluence with the sea. This water potential can be expressed as a potential of so many acres by adopting a suitable crop duty per unit quantity of water. Similarly, the C.C.A available at various points along the river can be quantified from the Block Command Maps of the basin [1].

The District is skirted to a distance by Kandivalasagedda, Vamsadhara and Bahuda at certain stretches of their courses while a line of heights of the great Eastern Ghasts run from North East. Vizianagaram District flanks in the south and west while Orissa bounds it on the north and Bay of Bengal on the East. The total area of the District is 5,837 Sq. Kms. It has a population of 27,03,114 persons according to the 2011 census. The District derived its name from Srikakulam its headquarters town. Srikakulam District was carved out in 1950 by bifurcating it from Visakhapatnam District, it remained unaffected in its territorial jurisdiction for quite some time. But in November, 1969 the District lost 63 villages from Saluru Taluk and 44 villages from Bobbili Taluk on account of their transfer to the then newly constituted Gajapathinagaram Taluk of Visakhapatnam District. Again in May, 1979, the District had undergone major territorial changes on account of the formation of new District with head quarters at Vizianagaram which involved transfer of Salur, Bobbili, Parvathipuram and Cheepurupalli Taluks to the new District. The Nagavali, Vamsadhara, Survarnamukhi, Vegavathi, Mahendratanaya Gomukhi, Champavathi, Bahuda and Kumbikota gedda are the important rivers of the District. The Vamsadhara river rises in the Eastern Ghats of Orissa State and enters Srikakulam District in Bhamini Mandal and finally falls in to the Bay of Bengal near Calingapatnam.
