The building has a footprint of 175' x 150' and is 6 stories tall. The local building code calls for 2 parking spaces for every 1,500 GSF. Assume: • ● ● Area per parking space = 300 ft. Roof Drains 1/5,000 ft². Maximum rainfall intensity = 4in/hr. a) How many sq.ft. of parking must you build? (5pts.) b) What is the maximum storm water flow (gal/min) to be managed from: i) The parking area? (5pts.) ii) The roof? (5pts.) c) What is the flow (gpm) in each roof drain leader?
