Hydrology (26446)
1. Rationale: Hydrology is an extremely important field of study, dealing with one of the most valuable resources on Earth water. All aspects of the Earth's available water are studied by experts from many disciplines, from geologists to civil engineers, to obtain the information needed to manage this vital resource. Thus, considering the importance above mentioned, this discipline has been included in the diploma level as a subject to be graduate in the sector. The syllabus includes concept of engineering hydrology, hydrology cycle, hydrometeorology, introduction to precipitation, measurement of precipitation, analysis and interpretation of rainfall data, stream flow measurement, evaporation and evapotranspiration, infiltration, rainfall and runoff relationship, hydrograph analysis and flood routing modules/contents, blue economy and Delta plan in Bangladesh to be studied in the teaching learning process.

2. Learning outcome (Theoretical): After undergoing the subject, students will be able to

 Describe origin, composition, classification and properties of soil.
 State plasticity characteristics of soil.
 Define hydraulic properties of soil.
 Describe consolidation and compaction characteristics of soil.
 Define lateral earth pressure of soil.
 Describe subsurface investigation and method of sample collection.
 Calculate the bearing capacity of soil.

3. Learning outcome (Practical): After undergoing the subject, students will be able to

 Determine the water content of soil by oven drying method.
 Determine the specific gravity of soil by Pycnometer method.
 Determine the particle size of soil by sieve analysis method.
 Determine the liquid limit and plastic limit of soil.
 Perform the co-efficient of permeability of soil by constant head test.
 Determine the bearing capacity of soil from Standard Penetration Test (SPT).
 Perform standard proctor test of the soil.
 Perform unconfined compression test of the soil.
 Perform unit weight of soil by core cutter method.
 Perform unit weight of soil by sand replacement method.
