6- A new 7 ha suburban development is to be serviced by a trunk storm sewer that discharges to a local stream. Use the rational method (Q= CiA) to estimate the peak surface runoff in m3[d. Assume a typical runoff coefficient (C) for a suburban development, time of concentration is 30 minutes and the local IDF relationship is given by
i =60.3td, where td is the rainfall duration in hours and i is the intensity in mm/hr. Clearly state any assumptions made in your answer.
