Hydraulic Design of Storm Sewers

At the end of this course you will be able to:   Determine time of concentration using three key elements in order to select adequate rainstorm intensities. Analyze intensity-duration-frequency curves to develop storm sewer designs that safeguard the health safety and welfare of the public. Utilize the rational method to calculate peak storm events. List the 10 steps used for placement of storm inlets and how to calculate the contributing runoff area. Utilize the 10 steps to develop the hydraulic design for storm sewer inlets using Mannings and Bernoullis Energy equations. Calculate ponding areas above storm drains based on inlet capacity.
