Question: # 3 . A new residential development has an overland flow length of 7 0 0 f t to the curb / gutter system which
# A new residential development has an overland flow length of to the curbgutter system which then connects the local development storm pipe system. The development is acres with hydrologic soil group B and the land surface will be graded to an average slope of The development is asphaltic surfaces driveways roads roofs and grass areas yards parks, assume "dense grass" in good condition. Using a yr design storm:
a Compute the overland flow time using:
i FAA equation, and
ii Kinematic wave equation.
b Compute the flow time for the channelized flow in the gutter and storm pipes within the development to the outlet which then connects to the city storm sewer Assume a spacing for the inlets along the gutter, and for the storm pipes. Assume an average velocity for the gutter flow of and the storm pipe of
c Compute the time of concentration for the development, using the overland flow time from aii kinematic wave method and the channelized flow time from b
d Using the Rational Method, compute the peak flow rate for the year design storm that will enter the city storm sewer at the outlet of the development.
