Overview

Stormwater conveyance design and analysis requires the engineer to consider a number of system components, including open channels, inlets, roadway crossings, storm sewers, and detention facilities. Stormwater Conveyance Modeling and Design guides you through the design and analysis process using a unique approach that combines the theoretical fundamentals with practical design guidance and hydraulic modeling techniques. 

From the development of design discharges and hydrographs to the analysis and design of channels, culverts, and detention facilities, Stormwater Conveyance Modeling and Design is a one-stop, comprehensive textbook for all of your stormwater needs. Topics include:

• Types and sources of rainfall data, including Internet resources
• Hydrologic analysis methods, such as Horton, Green-Ampt, rational, and NRCS (SCS) Curve Number
• Hydrograph development using a unit hydrograph
• Channel routing techniques
• Analysis methods for closed-conduit and open-channel flow
• Design of open channels and culverts
• Analysis and design of storm sewers, including inlet capture and bypass, structure losses, and surcharging
• Design of stormwater pumping facilities
• Reservoir routing and design of stormwater detention facilities
