5. A bioretention area will be designed to treat runoff from the impervious portion a commercial site. The commercial site has a total area of 15-acres with 85% impervious. The water quality design storm for the area is 0.5 inch. Assuming a drawdown time of 40 hrs and coefficient of permeability of 2 in/hr, determine the dimensions of the bioretention.

Fluid Materials

In general terms, anything that flows can be termed as a fluid. In other words, a fluid is any substance that cannot resist shear forces and deforms continuously under the application of external shear forces. Fluid materials differ completely from solid materials such as metals and alloys. For instance, if we consider two infinitesimally small cross-sectional areas of fluid materials and solid materials, and apply shear forces to these elements, both the elements will undergo deformation. Upon releasing the shear force, the element of the solid materials will regain its original orientation, but the element of the fluid materials will keep on deforming continuously under the action of the shear force.
