Abstract
This thesis presents a comprehensive design and assessment of the water supply
system for the town of Salahley. The study begins with a detailed of the current
water supply system, including source identification, distribution network, storage
facilities, and water quality management. Data was collected through field surveys,
interviews with local authorities, and examination of historical records. This data was
then used to model the existing system's hydraulic performance using EPANET,
identifying critical areas of inefficiency and insufficiency, particularly in terms of
maximum pressure, minimum pressure, and velocity.
The findings of this research provide a robust framework for improving the water
supply system in Salahley, ensuring reliable access to clean water for all residents.
This study serves as a valuable resource for local policymakers, engineers, and
stakeholders involved in the development and management of water supply systems in
similar contexts.

1.1 Background
A safe, reliable, affordable, and easily accessible water is essential for good health.
Yet, for several decades, about a billion people in developing countries have not had a
safe and sustainable water supply. It has been estimated that a minimum of 7.5 litres of
water per person per day is required in the home for drinking, preparing food, and
personal hygiene, the most basic requirements for water; at least 50 litres per person
per day is needed to ensure all personal hygiene, food hygiene, domestic cleaning, and
laundry needs (Howard G, Bartram J., 2003). This domestic water consumption is
where per capita domestic water consumption greatly exceeds these figures (360,
Data, 2010). To cover all these requirements and to avoid water stress, experts
generally agree that about 1,000 cubic metres of freshwater per capita per year is
A key target of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6, which made sure that the
proportion of the global population with access to safe drinking water and safe
sanitation services has increased since 2000. However, achieving universal access to
even basic sanitation services by 2030 will require a doubling of the current annual
proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic

sanitation’’ (Nations, United, 2007). This water supply target underpins several other
SDGs, including those relating to poverty (SDG1), education (SDG4), and gender
equality (SDG5). Also, the Millenium Development goal (MDG) 4, underpins the
countries are due to diarrhoeal disease, and unsafe water is a key risk factor for
diarrhoeal disease in this age group (Prüss A, 2001). The WHO/UNICEF Joint
progress on the MDG water supply target, identifies three categories of drinking water
supply: (a) water piped into the dwelling, plot, or yard; (b) other improved sources
including;- public taps, protected springs, hand pumps, and rainwater harvesting); and
(c) unimproved sources open water, unprotected from contamination (JMP, 2010).
JMP assumes that “improved” water should be available not only for drinking but also
for food preparation and personal and home hygiene, but it provides no official

water connection on their premises, and this percentage has decreased by 3% over the
population of SSA has more than doubled in 2 decades, from 135 million in 1990 to
308 million today, and another 122 million people are expected to be added to the

cities of SSA in the next 10 years. Unlike other regions, urbanization in Africa has not
been accompanied by increases in wealth. Indeed, as of 2010, SSA had the highest
percentage (61%) of urban residents living in slums among all world regions

Water supply refers to the process of providing clean, safe, and potable water for
storing, and distributing water to meet the needs of individuals, communities, and
industries. This includes the construction and operation of infrastructure such as wells,
reservoirs, treatment plants, pipelines, pumps, and distribution networks, as well as the

The wide expansion and accelerated development of Salahley district had led to an
increase in amount of water consumption for domestic, public and irrigation uses. The
average consumption of water in the village for all purposes does not exceed 22 cubic
meters per year (60 litres per capita per day) due to limited quantities of water and the
lack of water distribution system. This water demand was mostly met by cisterns,
In the view of this bad condition, the need for water supply scheme that will supply
the entire area of Salahley district with water requirements become pressing and

increase in the environmental and health problems, an evaluation and design of water
distribution system study became a pressing necessity so as to solve all the problems
The present study includes evaluation and design considered the annual population
growth and their water demand for the coming 20 years that will be the design period,

In the world everyone whatever their stage of growth and social and economic

the other hand, the intermittent supply due to failures of their supply components and
variation of demands may occur over the service period (Jalal, 2008).
The Water Distribution System (WDS) is responsible for supplying water to its
customers at serviceable pressures and speeds from the source or treatment plant
(Walski, 2003). It is made up of tubes, pumps, junctions, valves, fittings and tanks for
storage. Healthy drinking water is as much a birthright as clean air for all human
beings (SDSWE, 2016), while access to clean water can be considered as one of a
human being's fundamental needs and rights. Access to clean water is the foundation
for the protection of individuals and dignified lives. The demand for water is the

Access to improved drinking water source
In 2012, 89% of the world’s population had access to an improved source, up from 76
% in 1990. This indicates that, since 1990 over 2.3 billion people have gained access
to improved sources of drinking water. More than half the world’s populations, almost
4 billion people, now enjoy the highest level of water access: a piped water connection
at their homes. But there were 748 million people still relying on unsafe drinking
water sources in 2012, of which 173 million obtained their drinking water straight
from rivers, streams or ponds. The remaining population relied on unprotected, open
wells or poorly protected natural springs. Nearly half of the populations who lack
(Debela, Sustainability of Water Supply Schemes:The Case of Tulu- Bolo town and
surrounding villages inSouth West Shewa Zone of the Oromia Regional State, 2015).
The 2015 assessment report by the UNICEF/WHO indicated that Ethiopia has met the
MDG target 7c by halving the number of people without access to safe water since
1990 i.e. 57% of the population have access to improved drinking water source
(UNICEF Ethiopia, 2015). The coverage stood at 22% in 1990 and 24 % in 2000.
Although there has been a major leap in providing safe drinking water to the nation in
the last two decades, it’s evident that there is much more to be done. There are still 42
million Ethiopians without access to improved water supply. Lack of access to potable
water coupled with high population and urbanization growth rate; availing water is
still a major challenge for the nation. In addition to lack of access, the ability to
sustain the progress is in danger due to high level of non-functional schemes that are

Affected population
While exact numbers vary, it is estimated that a significant portion of Somaliland's
population faces water insecurity. For instance, according to a UNICEF report, over
30% of the population in some regions lacks access to safe drinking water. The
European Union's investment in urban water projects, totalling over $28 million in
recent years, highlights the scale of the challenge and the efforts needed to address it.

interesting in certain areas, either where it rains a lot, either very dry when the water
resources are very scarce and any source of water should be used.
Because of the great storage volumes required, this technique is used as a temporary
resource in complement to others. In all cases, the main disadvantage of this water
resource comes from the quality of water, polluted and charged with sediment during
the filling (roof dusty or covered with animal excrements for example), and
contaminated after a long period of storage. Moreover, the lack of minerals makes

Figure 3. Borehole distribution and variation of depths in different landforms map
In the mountains and highlands areas of Somaliland boreholes are generally shallow
compared to other landforms. There are 41 boreholes (52%) with depths less than
100m, and only 17% are more than 150m deep. Along the valleys 42% of boreholes
are within 100m depth; 33% are between 100 – 149m deep while 26% are deeper than
150m. Water quality along the mountains is generally fair but gets poor in the valleys,
again due to high salinity levels. The area classified under coastal plain in Somaliland
is small compared to the other three classes. Only 18 boreholes fall under this
landform, out of which 8 (44%) are shallow with 46 depths less than 100m, and 17%
deeper than 150m. Water coming out of the boreholes established along the coastal

commercial centre within the broader region, facilitating trade and economic activity
3.1.2 Topography
Salahley is characterized by a varied topography that includes flat plains, rolling hills,
and dry riverbeds. The flat plains dominate the landscape, featuring sandy and infertile
soils with sparse vegetation, primarily drought-resistant shrubs and grasses. These
plains are essential for pastoralism, the main livelihood in the region. Despite the arid
conditions, the plains support the grazing of livestock such as goats, sheep, and
camels.
The rolling hills scattered throughout the area provide a modest elevation change in
the otherwise flat terrain. These hills are covered with thorny bushes and acacia trees,
typical of the semi-arid environment. The dry riverbeds, which only flow during the
rainy seasons, are crucial for the local ecosystem, providing temporary water sources
24
Figure 5. Elevation map of Somaliland and Study area(Salaxley district)
3.1.2 Climate
Salahley District experiences a semi-arid climate typical of the Horn of Africa region.
The climate is characterized by hot and dry conditions for much of the year, with a
short rainy season. Salahley experiences high temperatures throughout the year, with
average daytime temperatures often exceeding 30°C (86°F). The hottest months
typically occur between June and September. The district receives minimal rainfall
outside of the short rainy season. The dry season, which lasts for several months,
contributes to the arid nature of the landscape. Salahley receives most of its
precipitation during a short rainy season, typically occurring between April and June.
During this time, sporadic rainfall can occur, supporting agricultural activities in the
region.
Salahley, a region characterized by its arid climate and limited rainfall, relies on a
combination of traditional and modern water supply systems to meet the needs of its
a network of deep wells and boreholes. These wells are often fitted with motorized
community. In addition to these wells, Salahley utilizes hand-dug wells, which are
shallower and rely on manual labour for water extraction. These traditional wells are
crucial for households located in remote areas, where access to motorized pumps is
limited.
25
To supplement the groundwater sources, Salahley has also implemented rainwater

season, ensuring a supplementary supply of water during the dry months. Water
storage tanks and cisterns are strategically placed throughout the region to maximize
constructed small-scale dams, sand dams, and plastic sheeting dams to enhance water
retention and recharge groundwater levels. These measures help to bolster the water
supply, but the community still faces significant challenges in maintaining a consistent

research used a case study of Salahley district, and the information obtained from
there would be treated as representative of the entire country at large. The design was
appropriate because it involved drawing small samples in order for in depth analysis
to be made.
The study was both qualitative and quantitative. The quantitative data was obtained
using structured questionnaires from different residents, civil servants and non-
government organizations workers both dealing in water related issues and non-water
related issues since water affects all, while the qualitative data was obtained from key
The type of a data we will use in our research is primary data. So, we apply our study
in both quantitative and qualitative type of data. We will make quantitative data by
using structured observation, also we will make a qualitative data by using closed
questionnaire form.
In the study, the target population were residents and both private and government
respondents were considered because they had adequate information on the aspects
considered in the study. The population of the study in this research was comprised of
9000 people.

3.5.2. Sample size
The sample for this study consisted of 33 respondents chosen from among the
water related issues in Salahley district. The population was divided into strata of
sampling was determined the extent to which each stratum in the population would be
represented in the sample and it guaranteed representation for all the population.
Stratified random sampling was used in order to get a representative sample of the
the population. After putting the target population into strata, simple random sampling
was used in selecting the civil servants, non-government organization workers and
residents from the study area. A sample had to be carefully selected if there was to be
confidence that the findings from the sample are similar to those that would be found
among the rest of the category under investigation. In this study, a sample of 33
respondents was used. These were selected using both simple random sampling and
respondents who are capable of providing the most appropriate information on the
subject matter. In determining the sample, the research was guided by Sloven's sample

4.1 Introduction
Design of water supply and sanitation scheme is based on the projected population of
a particular city, estimated for the design period. Any underestimated value will make
system inadequate for the purpose intended; similarly overestimated value will make
it costly. Change in the population of the city over the years occurs, and the system
should be designed taking into account of the population at the end of the design
The present and past population record for the city can be obtained from the census
population records. After collecting these population figures, the population at the end
of design period is predicted using various methods as suitable for that city
The design period of a water supply scheme can be limited by the following factors;

4.2 Population forecasting
This method is suitable for large and old city with considerable development. If it is
used for small, average or comparatively new cities, it will give low result than actual
value. In this method the average increase in population per decade is calculated from
the past census reports. This increase is added to the present population to find out the
population of the next decade. Thus, it is assumed that the population is increasing at
constant rate.

Here is the summary of the three methods of the population forecasting in one table;
36
The Geometric increase method is advantageous for forecasting the population of a
small town because it assumes a constant percentage growth rate, which aligns well
with how populations tend to grow naturally. Unlike the linear growth model that adds
a fixed number of people each year, the geometric model accounts for compounding
growth, where the population increase builds on itself over time. This makes the
model more accurate for reflecting real-world growth patterns, especially in small
Another advantage of the geometric growth model over the exponential growth model
is its simplicity and ease of use. While the exponential model involves more complex
calculations with the natural logarithm base e, the geometric model can be easily
implemented with basic spreadsheet tools. This simplicity makes it accessible for
planners and analysts who may not have advanced statistical training. Moreover, for
moderate growth rates commonly seen in small towns, the geometric model provides
reliable projections without the need for the intricate computations required by the
exponential model.
Humans have the right to ‘sufficient, safe, acceptable, physically accessible and
affordable water for personal and domestic uses’ (United Nations Committee on
Economic, Social and Cultural Rights 2003). A minimum quantity of water should be
available for drinking, food preparation, basic hygiene, bathing and sanitation to
ensure sustainable, healthy urban living. The most basic water requirement is
stipulated by the World Health Organization (WHO) and varies between 20 and 50
litres per capita per day (LPCD). The basic water requirement determined by WHO is
37
limited to access at an offsite tap and does not include consideration of homes with
piped water (WHO 2003). For this study, water use is viewed from the perspective of
sustainable, healthy urban living which implies a higher level of service than the
supplied, piped, pressurised, potable water. Water quality considerations were beyond

Therefore, Our average daily demand we can calculate the maximum daily demand by
As for the water demand the amount of domestic requirement may vary depending on
size and location of a city or town. Depending upon location of a place living habits
and condition vary. In a more civilized country per capita requirement of water is
more. Similarly, for a big city per capita water requirement will be more than a small
town. Per capita demand for a place may be as low as 55 lpcd to as high as 500 to 600
lcpd. Factors, which affect per capita requirement, are summarized below :
a) Climatic Condition
In dried regions more water is required than colder places because of frequent
bathing, more cleaning and more requirement of water for gardening etc. In hot and
For affluent class of people, more water is required because of their present habits and
more sophisticated lively style. For example, a house of rich people may have bathing
tubs for their bath where excessive amount of water may be required per capita. In
some of the Asian countries, toilets are cleaned after using it by pouring buckets of
water. In addition, for their personal cleaning people use water. They do not use toilet
papers and in such practice, more water is consumed. In some religion people, wash
39
themselves before every prayer and due to such habits also consumption of water
varies.
For large city per capita, water requirement is more than a small town. For bigger city
where population density is high, special arrangement has to be done for firefighting
also. Although this type of demand may be taken up separately, it enhances per capita
water demand. Large city has sewer system for waste water disposal and for this case
water requirement may go as high as three times than open drain system. A town may
be a smaller one but if it is an industrial town then per capita demand may be
composed with a big city because of indirect use of water. Although an average value
of 135 lcpd is taken for an Indian town but the total demand may go as high as 240 to
260 lcpd for a big or an industrial city. The values vary from 55 lcpd to 260 lcpd

A dead-end water distribution system has been chosen for the design of Salahley's
water supply primarily due to its cost-effectiveness and simplicity, which are
particularly advantageous for small towns with limited budgets and straightforward
geographical layouts. In a dead-end system, water flows from the source or main trunk
line to the endpoints, creating distinct branches that serve different sections of the
town. This type of system is easier to design and construct, requiring fewer pipes and
systems allow for more straightforward control and maintenance, as specific sections
of the network can be isolated without disrupting the entire supply. For a small town
like Salahley, where the population density is relatively low and the water demand can
be easily managed, a dead-end system provides an efficient and practical solution that
meets the community's needs while minimizing infrastructure costs and operational
complexity.
Also, the water distribution network of Salahley will be used both gravity and
44
4.4.2 Design demands
The consumption patterns of different users of water supply services vary on hourly,
daily and annual basis. Keeping records of these variations can help in developing
standard peak factors for a given locality, which is the basis for the design of different
water supply components. Poor estimation of these factors can lead to under or over
design of water supply systems. To evaluate the different elements of a water supply
The average daily demand(ADD) is the total annual (average) water demand
distributed over 365 days. It obtained by simply summing up the domestic and non-
domestic demands as well as unaccounted for water (UFW). These form the basis to
estimate the maximum day and the peak hour demand. For an average day demand, 20
future water demand is estimating current per-capital water consumption, and multiply
The maximum day water demand (MDD) is considered to meet water consumption
changes with seasons and days of the week. It also represents the changes in demand
with season and some special events happening in any specified year. The maximum
day demand is obtained by multiplying the average day demand with the maximum
day factor. In other words, the maximum day demands can be obtained by multiplying
the average-day demands to the peaking factor applied to the node’ (Venkateswara,
45
Where,
This occurs when particularly all the water taps are opened at a particular rush hour.
Such event happens during morning hours when most people use water for bathing,
cooking and could also occur towards the end of the day due to peoples’ need for
water for the same purpose after working hours. The peak hour demand is the highest
demand of any one hour over the maximum day. It represents the diurnal variations in
water demand resulting from the behavioural patterns of the local population. The
peak hour demand is obtained by multiplying the maximum day demand with the peak
hour factor.
Demand Patterns
Water demand in a distribution system fluctuates over time. For example, residential
water use on a typical weekday is higher than average in the morning before people go
to work, and is usually highest in the evening when residents are preparing dinner,
washing clothes, etc. This variation in demand over time can be modelled using
demand patterns.

The Hazen-Williams equation was developed for the action of friction at the pipe wall,
because its formula uses a pipe carrying capacity factor. Higher C-factors represent
smoother pipes (with higher carrying capacities) and lower C-factors describe rougher
pipes (Tomas, et al., 2003). The value of roughness coefficient, C-factor is depending
on pipe materials and its age (Tomas, et al., 2003). Typical pipe roughness values are
shown below. These values may vary depending on the manufacturer, workmanship,
age, and many other factors. In designing the distribution network, we use the Hazen
William formula with C value of UPVC, Steel DCI/GI as follow by taking the average
of each material. For UPVC take 105, Steel 100 and DCI/GI take 105. Because we

Knowing the locations of possible water supply sources and locations of Demand
points, the next question is how to convey the required water from supply sources to
demand points. Depending on the topographic conditions, the logical starts at this
stage are the selection of best routes, laying out of transmission and distribution mains
