Question

Identify the type of Well Point System which can suck water up to 5 meters?

(a) Single stage system

(b) Multi stage system

(c) Vacuum system

(d) Pumping

The question was posed to me by my school principal while I was bunking the class.

I'd like to ask this question from Deep Excavations in chapter Deep Excavations, Pile Foundations and Caisson of Construction & Building Materials

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

(a) Single stage system

A single stage system in the well point dewatering system can effectively suck water up to a depth of about 5 meters. This system uses a single pump to draw water from the well point, which is typically located within the excavation site to control the water level and prevent flooding during construction activities.
