Homework Assignment #8 Q1 Culvert A culvert passes under a temporary access road but any excess water not passing under must go over the road. The culvert pond depth upstream of the road is 908.5, but the road crown is set at 902.9. How much water (cfs) will over-top the roadway? Assume the roadway section being overtopped is 121 feet and that the weir coefficient for the roadway is 3.1. Within your scratch paper provide a profile view of the system. Please enter your answer to the nearest ones place. Please enter it as a numeric value only and please omit units.

A 200-acre urban drainage area consists of three different watershed areas: 60% single-family, 30% neighborhood businesses, and 10% playground area. If the time to concentration is 2.00 hours, determine the depth of gutters needed in the development area if each gutter is to accept 1% of the total volumetric flow. The slope along the roadway is 0.0005 ft/ft and a gutter cross-section as shown in Figure 4. State all assumptions applied.
The structure and enclosed paved plaza of the BMW Zentrum building, located in Greenville, SouthCarolina, may be approximated as a 70-m diametercircle. Flow path length may be approximatedas the average of the diameter and a half-circumference. The average surface slope ofthiscombinedfacility is approximately 5 percent.(a) Compute time of concentration using the FAA equation. (b) Rainfall intensity for Greenville County may be computed by the formula i = a/ (b + t.)°, usingcoefficients in the following table. What is the expected 25-year rainfall intensity? (c) Using the rational method, whatis the expected peak 25-year runoff from this facility? (d) What factors may contribute to the uncertainty of this runoff estimate?

5.4. A highway median channel is to be sized to accommo- date a peak runoff rate of 2.4 m³/s. Regulations require that the channel side slopes be 3:1 (H:V), and site con- ditions require a lining with an n value of 0.020 and a longitudinal slope of 0.8%. Determine the dimensions of the most efficient trapezoidal section.
