Learning outcomes: Know the causes and symptoms of faulty water relations in the soil, knows the basic structures used in water and drainage water in drainage work, knows the factors affecting the performance and strengthening of drainage ditches, no knowledge of the impact of hydraulic structures on the environment. Can use some computer programs supporting the design of water supply and drainage facilities, is able to analyze the needs of the location of engineering in the regulation of water relations in terms of area.

Competences: He could work on specific task, is aware of the impact of water-drainage structures on the environment.

Prerequisites: Physics and chemistry of soils, hydrology, meteorology and climatology.

Course content: Purpose and principles for the regulation of sewage drainage, causes and symptoms of faulty air-water relations in the soil, small water reservoirs and sources of supply, pond construction elements, water intakes for drainage facilities, the distribution and extent of land reclamation, the typical water-drainage structures, design principles ditches running water continuously and periodically, ways of regulating water relations on arable land and grassland, the rules regulating water relations in the areas adjacent to the dams, the types of defenses drainage ditches and streams.
