Question: You are conducting a flood study for a new development. The stream channel has a slope of . 0 0 2 4 ft / ft

You are conducting a flood study for a new development. The stream channel has a
slope of .0024 ft/ft through the section being studied and the cross-section is shown below with the
estimated Mannings n values. Based on your hydrologic analysis, the 100-year flood is expected to
be 1200 ft3/sec. Assuming steady, uniform flow conditions, does the stream channel section within
the development as shown below have sufficient capacity for the 100-year flood? Provide the left
overbank, main channel, right overbank, and total conveyance (flow) for the stream channel.
