Course Overview

Surface water hydrology is one of the core courses in civil engineering that covers a wide range of topics related to different components, at or near earth’s surface of the global hydrological cycle. The spread of knowledge base is wide and relevant topics are multiple in this major field of study. To provide a comprehensive learning strategy, this course is sub-divided into three major modules, namely Hydrological Processes, Hydrological Analysis and Hydrological Design. The first module starts with the fundamental concept of hydrology and hydrologic cycle and its importance on earth. This module ends with an overall discussion on the importance of this subject in the context of climate change as a part of motivation. Next module focuses on different important components of the hydrologic cycle, starting with the most vital one i.e., precipitation and gradually discussing evaporation, evapotranspiration, infiltration, run-off, streamflow, flood etc. All necessary theoretical concepts of each process, their physical modelling and their real-life measuring arrangements are discussed elaborately. Necessary schematics diagrams and practical photographs are used along with illustrative examples to make the theoretical concepts clear. More real-life applications are considered in the last module in which Hydrological design concepts are developed.

Course Outcomes

  • Explain the different concepts in hydro-metrology.
  • Discuss the key aspects of hydrology, along with a more applied appreciation of monitoring and modelling hydrological processes.
  • Generalize knowledge on topics ranging from climatology, atmospheric circulation and meteorological measurements, as well as more detailed investigations into precipitation, stream flow measurement, hydrograph analysis, storm runoff and concepts in flood estimation and routing.
  • Explain the relevance of various components of hydrologic cycle, which are responsible for spatial and temporal distribution of water availability in any region.
  • Develop students’ in-depth understanding on how hydrologic principles can be applied to supplement decision support system for water and environmental management.

Course Overview

Design of Steel Structures is a course that focuses on the principles of designing steel structures, covering material specifications, stability, and connection design. This course reviews fundamentals, including the Limit State Method of Design. It emphasizes the design of structural steel members in frames, trusses, and various civil engineering projects. The latest Indian Standard Code is used for the design methodology. It includes the analysis of steel frame structures for local and global buckling and material failure. Overall, the course provides students with a comprehensive understanding of steel structure design and its applications in civil engineering projects.

Course Outcomes

  • Understand the basic elements of a steel structure.
  • Understand the fundamentals of structural steel fasteners.
  • Applying engineering concepts which are applied in field of Steel Structures.
  • Design welded, bolted connections.
  • Design basic elements of steel structure like tension members, compression members, plate girder, plastic analysis.
