LAYOUT AND DESIGN FOR STORM WATER SYSTEM

INTRODUCTION:
Storm Drains are designed to collect excess storm water runoff and from impervious surfaces,
such as, rain and snow melt that runs off surfaces such as rooftops, paved streets, highways,
and parking lots.
A storm drain is defined as that portion of the storm drainage system where it is then
discharged into a channel, water body, or piped system. It consists of one or more pipes
connecting one or more inlets. A storm drain may be a closed-conduit, open-conduit, or some
combination of the two.
The terminology "storm sewer" which has been in general use for many years, is gradually
being replaced with the term "storm drain" to differentiate between sanitary sewers and storm
drains.

Storm drains vary in design from small residential dry wells to large municipal systems. Many
storm drainage systems are designed to drain the storm water untreated, into rivers or streams

LAYOUTS FOR STORM WATER SYSTEM:

Storm water inlets may be categorized by three types

1. curb inlet
2. gutter inlet
3. composite inlet

Cheap arrangement for surface drains (Low cost arrangements)

* ‘V’ shaped drain
* Semi –circular drain
* ‘U’ shaped drain
* Rectangular drain

Curb inlet :
These are the vertical opening in the road curbs through which the storm water runoff flows.

Gutter inlet:
Gutter inlet that portion of the roadway section adjacent to the curb which is
utilized to convey storm water runoff.
These are the horizontal openings

Composite inlet:
where the curb opening extends upstream of the grated section is called a sweeper inlet.
Combination of both curbs and gutter inlet. Combination inlets take advantage of the debris
removal capabilities of a curb-opening inlet and the capture efficiency of a grate inlet.
Combination inlets on a continuous grade (i.e., not in a sump location) intercept 18% more than
grate inlets alone and are much less likely to clog completely (CSU 2009).
A special case combination

*Cheap arrangements or low cost arrangements

Low impact development (LID) refers to storm water management techniques that reduce the
hydrological impact of new development or redevelopment at the site level biorientation ,
infiltration, previous pavements, green roofs cisterns are some of the techniques being studied
and implemented for cost effective and environmentally sustainable storm water management
and water quality treatment.

DESIGN PROCESS FOR STORM WATER SYSTEM:

There are ten steps that must be undertaken to plan or design a drainage/storm water
management system for a typical new development
They are:
Catchment definition and discretization
Flow estimation and check
Quantity and quality control strategy
Minor system initial assessment
Major system check
Preliminary sizing
Water quality system design
Network review
