A 60 cm diameter culvert has been designed to convey a discharge of 500 L/s of storm- water under a residential road. The culvert is 50 m long and has a slope of 2.3%. From a hydraulic analysis, the headwater depth was obtained as 2.5 m. You are required to determine: 1.1. the head required to convey the discharge through the culvert at full flow conditions if a corrugated steel pipe is used with a Manning's roughness coefficient of n = 0.012 with an inlet headwall of square type. 1.2. What is the corresponding downstream flow depth in 1.1 above?
