Formulas and adopted data :


1) Q=(A*I*R)/360 5) Average rainfall intensity of Mumbai = 25mm/h (Taken from I.M.D. based on years 1950-2000)
2) Iavg=∑(Individual Impermeability factor*Individual Area)/Total Area 6) Average annual precipitation of Mumbai = 2422mm (Taken from I.M.D. based on years 1950-200
3) Data of impermeability factor is taken from sp7-2005…page no.1067 7) Water spillage factor and coefficient of roof material are taken from sp7-2005
4) Given areas are converted into hectares(1 ha = 10 4 m2)
