Precipitation frequency(PF)estimates in this table are based on frequency analysis of partial duration series(PDS).
Numbers in parenthesis are PF estimates at lower and upper bounds of the 90%confidence interval.The probability that precipitation frequency estimates(for
a given duration and average recurrence interval)will be greater than the upper bound(or less than the lower bound)is 5%.Estimates at upper bounds are not
checked against probable maximum precipitation(PMP)estimates and may be higher than currently valid PMP values.

Procedure: Use procedures outlined in the above reference. Rational Method will be used to calculate
flows. Normal depth will be calculated using Mannings Equation and water velocity will be
calculated using the principle of continuity(Q=VA)
Channels will be designed to carry flow generated by the 10-Year storm event using
maximum slope.
Calculations: Post-D�eioped
Rational Method: Q=C'I'A
Where
Q=Flow(cfs)
C=Runoff Coefficient
I=Rainfall Intensity(in/hr)
A=Drainage Area(ac)

Check channel for adequate depth and for need for armoring
Assume 2.5 ft/s as maximum allowable velocity for bare earth and 4.5 ft/s
as maximum allowable velocity for grass lined
Design channel lining using tractive force procedure
Calculations will be done using Manning's Equation to find normal depth
and Continuity(Q=V'A)to find velocity.

Calculate normal depth and velocity with bare earth as lining
From Ref.2, n= 0.02

Calculate normal depth and velocity with grass as lining
From Ref.2, n= 0.03
Flow(cfs)= 27.0
normal depth(ft)= 1.4

Since velocity is greater than the 4.5 ft/s limit for grass lined,

Calculate shear stress
Shear stress(lb/ft2)=(62.4 Ib/ft)'(normal depth)'(slope)
