Drainage Calculation

Width of carriageway = 8.0 m


Span of structure = 31.0 m
Runoff from the catchment , Q = 0.028*P*A*Ic cum\sec
P - Run off coefficient = 0.90 As per IRC SP 50, Table 6.1,
A - Aera of Catchment in hectares = 248 sq.m 0.0248 Ha
Critical intensity of rainfall, Ic = F(T+1) cm/hr
T(Tc+1)
F - Total rainfall in cm within a storm duration of 'T' hours
From isopluvial maps of central India plate XVI
24 Hrs - Rainfall value for 25 years return period for the project
= 240 mm
region
Zone specific conversion factor = 0.390 As per table 6.1 of IRC SP 42

Rainfall intensity in 1 hour(T) for 25 yrs return period = 9.4 cm/hr

Total Time of concentration in hours within the storm duration


= To+Tf
of ‘T’ hours, t
Time of concentration overland (To) in hours = (0.87 x L3 / H) 0.385 IRC SP 50,Cl. 6.1,
L - Distance of critical point to the drain location in km = 0.0080 km
H - Fall in level from the critical point to the drain level in m = 0.20 m
Time of concentration overland (To) in hours = 0.0067 hrs
Time of concentration in channel (Tf) in Seconds = Lc / V
Lc = Length of longitudinal drain in m = 27 m
2/3 1/2
V = Theoretical velocity in m/s = 1/n R S
Diameter of runner pipe (d) = 0.100 m
n = Manning’s roughness coefficient for PVC pipe = 0.010 IRC SP 50,Cl. 6.1,
R= Hydraulic mean radius in m (Area of flow cross section
= 0.025
/ Wetted Perimeter)
S= Longitudinal slope of the drain = 0.033
V = Theoretical velocity in m/s = 1.553 m/s
Time of concentration in channel (Tf) in Hrs = 0.005 hrs

Cumulative Time of concentration (t) = 0.011 hrs

Critical rainfall intensity Ic for t = 19 cm/(t-hrs)

Peak runoff Q = 0.0116 m3/s

Capacity of runner pipe Qc = AxV


= 0.0122 m3/s

Capacity of runner pipe Qc > Peak runoff Q 0.1m is sufficient
