Question
The regression analysis of a 30 year flood data at a point on a river yielded sample mean
* = 1200 m³/sec and standard deviation S = 650 m³/sec. For what discharge would you design
the structure at this point to provide 95% assurance that the structure would not fail in the next
50 years? Use Gumbel's method. The value of mean and standard deviation of the reduced variate
for n = 30 are 0.53622 and 1.11238 respectively.
