Solution:

Step 1: From the table inlet coefficients, for rectangular box culvert with no wing wall take
.
Step 2: Then take the chart 15 submerged outlet flowing full.

Step 3: Draw a line connecting the area and length in the column .

Step 4: Again draw a line connecting the discharge and previously drawn line and
extend it to the head in feet column and note the value.

Note: Two lines should meet at the turning line.

From the chart the head is 5 feet.

(a)

Determine the headwater depth:

headwater depth for Q=100 cfs is

Therefore, the

) Only the discharge changes to 150 cfs. From the chart the head is 10.2 feet.
(b

Determine the headwater depth:

headwater depth for Q=150 cfs is

Therefore, the
