Q.3: B) A residential area with an area of 5 km² and a runoff coefficient of 0.285. Rain fell on it to a depth of 15 cm for a period of 24 hours. It is required to design a stormwater drainage network for that area based on the information mentioned above, considering that these rates are the maximum over a period of (50) years. What is the appropriate diameter for the main pipe exiting at the outlet of this area if you know that the network serves 50% of the total area of the area and assuming the arrival time of the water wave through any pipe with a length of 100 meters is 57 seconds?

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.
