Does anybody know a good method to estimate the rain that might be blown onto the surface of the car park through the sides. Obviously the middle floors in the car park have a roof but the sides are exposed to...

    Drainage Trench Conveyance Capacity

    Thanks for the responses. Just to confirm the trench will be filled all the way to the top with stone and lined with a membrane to stop soil ingress. I was hoping I could just use mannings and divide the answer by 3 (the stone creates 33% free space within the trench). I thought it might be...

    Drainage Trench Conveyance Capacity

    Hello, If I have a drainage trench 600mm x 600mm filled with large stones, assuming a porosity of 0.33 and a gradient of 1/200 what is the best way to caculate the conveyance capacity in l/s. In other words what is the maximum flow rate the trench can pass downstream to the outfall. I would...
