A roadway with a rough-asphalt pavement has a cross slope of 2%, a longitudinal slope of 2.5%, a curb height of 8 cm, and a 90-cm-wide concrete gutter. If the flow rate in the gutter is 0.07 m3 /s, determine the size (W x L, in mm) and interception capacity (m3 /s) of a reticuline grate that should be used to intercept as much of the flow as possible. a. Reticuline grate size? b. Interception capacity?
