Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds 1 Docsity.com Simplified methods for estimating runoff and peak discharge for small urban/urbanizing watersheds • Ch 1 Intro • Ch 2 Estimating Runoff • Ch 3 Time of Concentration • Ch 4 Peak Runoff Method • Ch 5 Hydrograph Method • Ch 6 Storage Volumes for Detention Basins 2 Docsity.com Limitations • Accuracy decreases as complexity increases • Accuracy (+/- 25%) • Where possible, compare to gaged data • TR-20 (not TR-55) should be used if: – Tt > 3hours – Tc for any subarea > 2 hours – Drainage areas differ by a factor of 5 or more – Entire hydrograph is needed for detailed flood routings – Peak discharge time must be determined accurately 5 Docsity.com 6 Subareas 1 & 2 routed through 3,5 and 7 Subareas 3 & 4 routed through 5 & 7 Subareas 5 & 6 routed through 7 Proposed subdivision in 5, 6 and 7 Docsity.com 7 Table 5-1 Initial abstraction as a function of curve number Ia/P values are then calculated Docsity.com Worksheet 5b: Basic watershed data
