Concrete lining of high level canal of Tungabhadra project
Studies made on Tungabhadra project indicated that initial cost of construction of lined canal is considerably less than that of unlined canal carrying equal discharge; furthermore, water saved through stoppage of seepage could bring additional area under irrigation, while saving in maintenance costs is also large; it was decided to line 69 mi length of high level canal of project; different canal and tunnel sections adopted are briefly described.
