Structural Design Report of a Typical Jackwell Cum Pump House

Abstract

Drought prone districts in the eastern part of Karnataka are frequently affected due to erratic rainfall. It is a long-standing demand of the people in the region that a permanent and dependable source need to be identified and these areas are supplied with drinking water. Government of Karnataka initiated Yettinahole Project for mitigating the problem faced by the people by harnessing Yettinahole and other streams originating in the upper reaches of Western Ghats near Sakleshpura and has directed Visvesvaraya Jala Nigam Limited for implementation of the project.
