WHAT IS WATER SUPPLY

P .R.PATIL COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE , BUILDING SERVICES AND EQUIPMENTS , 3 rd YEAR,

Definition

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

A water supply system or water

supply network is a system of
engineered hydrologic and hydraulic
components which provide water
supply.

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

THERE ARE FOUR TYPES OF SYSTEMS

1. DEAD END SYSTEM
2. CIRCLE OR RING SYSTEM
3. GRID IRON SYSTEM
4. RADIAL SYSTEM

P .R.PATIL COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE , BUILDING SERVICES AND EQUIPMENTS , 3 rd YEAR,

1. DEAD END SYSTEM

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

THIS SYSTEM IS
SUITABLE FOR OLD
TOWNS AND CITIES
HAVING NO
DEFINATE PATTERN
ALSO KNOWN AS
BRANCHED SYSTEM

P .R.PATIL COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE , BUILDING SERVICES AND EQUIPMENTS , 3 rd YEAR,

DEAD END SYSTEM

AVANTAGES
RELATIVELY CHEAP.
DETERMINATION OF
DISCHARGES AND
PRESSURE EASIER
DUE TO LESS NUMBER
OF VALVES.

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

DISADVANTAGES
DUE TO MANY DEAD
ENDS , STAGNATION
OF WATER OCCURS IN
PIPES.
VARIATION IN AIR
PRESSURE.

P .R.PATIL COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE , BUILDING SERVICES AND EQUIPMENTS , 3 rd YEAR,

2. RADIAL SYSTEM
THE AREA IS DIVIDED
INTO DIFFERENT
ZONES.
THE WATER IS PUMPED
INTO THE
DISTRIBUTION
RESERVOIR KEPT IN
THE MIDDLE OF EACH
ZONE.
THE SUPPLY PIPES ARE
LAID RADIALLY ENDING
TOWARDS PERIPHERY.

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

ADVANTAGES
IT GIVES QUICK SERVICES
CALCULATION OF PIPE SIZE
IS EASY.

P .R.PATIL COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE , BUILDING SERVICES AND EQUIPMENTS , 3 rd YEAR,

3. GRID IRON SYSTEM

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

IT IS SUITIABLE FOR CITIES WITH

RECTANGULAR LAYOUT, WHERE THE MAINS AND
BRANCHES ARE LAID IN RECTANGLES.

P .R.PATIL COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE , BUILDING SERVICES AND EQUIPMENTS , 3 rd YEAR,

3. GRID IRON SYSTEM

ADVANTAGES

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

DISADVANTAGES

WATER IS KEPT IN
GOOD CIRCULATION
DUE TO THE ABSENCE
OF DEAD ENDS.

EXACT CALCULATION OF
SIZES OF PIPES IS NOT
POSSIBLE DUE TO VALVES
ON ALL BRANCHES.

IN THE CASE OF A
BREAKDOWN IN SOME
SECTION, WATER IS
AVAILABLE FROM SOME
OTHER DIRECTION.

PROVSION OF WATER
MAINS AT THECENTRE OF
CITY.

P .R.PATIL COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE , BUILDING SERVICES AND EQUIPMENTS , 3 rd YEAR,

3. RING SYSTEM
THE SUPPY MAIN IS
LAID ALL ALONG THE
PERIPHERAL ROAD.
THIS SYSTEM ALSO
FOLLOWS THE GRID
IRON SYSTEM WITH
THE FLOW PATTERN
SIMILAR IN
CHARACTER TO THAT
OF DEAD END
SYSTEM.

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

ADVANTAGES
WATER CAN BE SUPPLIED TO
ANY POINT FROM AT LEAST
TWO DIRECTION .

HYDRO PNEUMATIC

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

Hydro pneumatic
system is a variation of
direct pumping system.
An air-tight pressure
vessel is installed on the
line to regulate the
operation of the pump
This system shall have
regulate power supply

INDIRECT SYSTTEM

WATER
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

Indirect system is also

known as over head tank
system.
This is the most common of
the distribution system
It comprises of pumping
water to one or more
overhead tank
Water collected to overhead
tank is distributed to the
various parts of the building
by a set of pipes located
generally at terrace
