1.A 350 +sl m long graded bund is to be designed for a cultivated land with sandy loam soil and a surface slope of 4%. The bund channel is to be formed by the embankment only. The horizontal distance between two bund s is 50 m. The 1-hr rainfall expected during the recurrence interval of 10 yrs is 8 cm/hr.
