- You have a 5 acre commercial development, where flow drains
into a gutter. Assume that the travel time is 15 mins.
The rainfall intensity can be determined by the following equation:
i=10t-0.4.
For the curb and gutter have the
following design parameters: n = 0.015, cross slope of 40:1 and
longitudinal slope is 3.0%.
- Determine the gutter flow depth, curb design depth and spread
necessary to contain the 10 year peak flow.
- Determine the size of the catch basin for both submerged and
unsubmerged flow conditions.
