Surface Drainage System Design
Tradeoffs: Steep slopes provide good hydrauliccapacity and lower ROW costs, but reducesafety and increase maintenance costs and
erosionThree phases
1. Estimate of the quantity of water to reach thesystem
2. Hydraulic design of system elements3. Comparison of different materials that serve
same purpose

Hydrologic Analysis: Rational
Method
Useful for small, usually urban, watersheds(<10acres, but DOT says <200acres)
Q = CIA (english) or Q = 0.0028CIA (metric)
Q = runoff (ft3 /sec) or (m3 /sec)C = coefficient representing ratio of runoff to
rainfall
I = intensity of rainfall (in/hour or mm/hour)A = drainage area (acres or hectares)

Method

Runoff Coefficient
• Coefficient thatrepresents the
fraction of runoff torainfall
• Depends on type ofsurface

Runoff Coefficient
When a drainage area has distinctparts with different coefficients…
Use weighted average
C = C1A1 + C2A2 + ….. + CnAn

Intensity
Average intensity for a selectedfrequency and duration
Based on “design” event (i.e. 50-yearstorm)
Overdesign is costly (what else?)
Underdesign may be inadequate
Duration

12
Intensity
Based on values of Tc and T
Tc = time of concentration
T = recurrence interval or designfrequency
As a minimum equal to the time of
concentration, tc, (in/hr)

Recurrence Interval (Design Event)
2-year interval -- Design of intakes andspread of water on pavement for primaryhighways and city streets
10-year interval -- Design of intakes andspread of water on pavement for freewaysand interstate highways
50 - year -- Design of subways(underpasses) and sag vertical curves where
storm sewer pipe is the only outlet 100 – year interval -- Major storm check on
all projects

Time of Concentration (tc)
Time for water to flow fromhydraulically most distant point on the
watershed to the point of interest Assumes peak runoff occurs when I
lasts as long or longer than Tc
8/3/2019 06 Rural Drainage
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/06-rural-drainage 15/37
15
Time of Concentration (tc)
Depends on:
Size and shape of drainage area
Type of surface
Slope of drainage area
Rainfall intensity
Whether flow is entirely overland orwhether some is channelized

Time of Concentration (tc)
Ti = L
3600 V
where
Ti = travel time for section i in watershed(hr)
L = flow length (ft)
V = average velocity (ft/sec)

Nomograph Method
Trial and error
Estimate I
Determine Tc
Check I and Tc against values in Table5 (Iowa DOT, Chapter 4)
Repeat until I ~ Tc
