Problem# 1
A storm sewer system for a watershed consists
of four areas A, B, C and D as given in Figure
The direction of flow from each area and
between the manholes is given by an arrow.
Using rational method, determine the 25-year
peak flow for each sewer section. The IDF given
in Figure 2(Page 2) reflects the intensity-
duration-frequency relationships for the
watershed. Assume the time travel between each
manhole is 5 minutes.

Problem # 2
For the same layout shown in Problem #1 above,
recalculate the design flow for each sewer section
by determining the overland flow using any
suitable method if the information provided Table
2 are applicable. The average velocity through
each sewer pipe =4ftsec and the rainfall
intensity (in/hr) is represented by an IDF
relationship i=100tc+15;tc in minutes.
