Highway Drainage

Highway drainage is the process of extracting and regulating the excess surface water on the pavement by giving the desired slope. The construction of a highway drain helps to divert the water present on the surface, and sub-grade by the means of slope. Highway drainage systems are a necessary part of smooth functioning of traffic, since the highway drainage systems provide proper disposal of unwanted substances from the highways.

A diversion gate backs up flow in a 5-ft wide rectangular irrigation channel (S0 = 0.001, n = 0.015). The discharge in the channel is 50 cfs. If the depth of flow at the gate is 3.5 ft, determine the channel and flow classification (e.g., M-2, S-1, etc.) upstream of the gate and explain your supporting logic. Then determine the water surface profile by finding the depth of flow at distances of 100ft, 300ft, and 600ft upstream of the gate. Use a spreadsheet or appropriate computer software to perform the computations.
