Detention Pond Design
For the given inflow hydrograph, design a detention basin that will reduce the peak flow out of the basin to cfs

Your basin should be twice as long as it is wide. The sideslopes should be horizontal to vertical : I recommend that you have a round orifice on the bottom of your outlet structure so that the basin will go completely dry after the storm. You are required to provide me with a design that shows the:
Length, width and water depth during peak flow
The configuration of your outlet structure basic dimensions don't worry about thickness of concrete and pipes, etc..
A graph the shows both the inflow hydrograph and the outflow hydrograph
The spreadsheet that you developed to solve this problem. AND, NO you cannot use any software other than a spreadsheet.
Hints: remember to watch the units especially the units of time Keep it simple, don't try to optimize the design. Develop and use your spreadsheet to route the storm through your basin.
