Determine the most efficient section of a trapezoidal channel with 'n' = 0.025 to carry a discharge of 15 m³/sec to prevent scouring, the maximum velocity is to be 1m/sec and the side slope of the trapezoidal channel are 1 vertical to 2 horizontal.
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.

On a railroad, a -0.8% grade meets a +0.4% grade at Sta. 2 + 700 whose elevation is 30 m. The maximum allowable change in grade per station having a length of 20 m is 0.15 %. It is desired to place a culvert to draw the waters during heavy downpour. Where must this culvert be located? At what elevation must the invert of the culvert be set if the pipe has a diameter of 0.9 m and the backfill is 0.3 m high. Neglect the thickness of the pipe. Please show the detailed solution. Thank you
