Smooth Bromegrass is a cool-season grass introduced into the United States from Hungary in 1884 -This leafy and sod-forming perennial spreads aggressively through both seeds and rhizomes. It grows 15 to 30 inches high and flowers during late spring and early summer in an open panicle.

1. Is this an acceptable pond design without a pipe? Y / N

A. Top of Dam= _________ EL.B. Settled Volume= ____________ CY

2. Remove all vegetation. (HINT-n=.0156. For fine-grained, cohesive soils, the value of n is taken as 0.0156) Is this an acceptable pond design without a pipe? Y / N

PART B: Use PART A input as a start.

This pond has gullies in the upstream area of the pool. Need to design a GSS for this site. Permanent Pool @ Elev. 100.0 ft. This will cover headcuts with 2.0 ft. of water. Crest of principal spillway = 100.0 ft EL. Volume of sediment between principal and aux spw = 0.0 AF. Rainfall: PSH=1 day = 7.5”Principal Spillway Data: (Single Stage Circular Conduit)

Number of Conduits = 1Length of Conduit = 114 feetDiameter of Conduit = 12”Conduit “n” = 0.013Ke = 1.0HGL at outlet of conduit = 89.5 feet.Riser weir length = 6.28 feet. (24 inch dia.)

Auxiliary Spillway Data: We want to do a Stability & Integrity Analysis of the

Spillway. Let the program set the crest of the auxiliary spillway.

1. What is the Auxiliary Spillway Crest (ASC) _________EL.2. What is the Top of Dam (TOD) ____________EL.3. What is estimated construction volume ________CY.4. What is effective soil stress_____________lb/ft2. 5. What is the integrity distance for the spillway

analyzed.

Part C Use Part B file as a start

Rainfall: PSH=1 day = 7.5”Use a Hood Inlet with same diameter and pipe length as

the pipe drop.Distance to bend 100’ and bend to outlet 14’.The elevation of the bend is 90 and the outlet is 89.Say the Mannings “n” = 0.013Circular weir coeff. -- 0.6Entrance coeff. -- 1.0

1. What is the Auxiliary Spillway Crest (ASC) _________EL.2. What is the Top of Dam (TOD) ____________EL.3. What is estimated construction volume ________CY.

Part D Use Part B input file as a start

Add stability berm on the down stream side at 5’ with 25’ top width. Add a wave berm width =20’ on the front slope.
