Function: 1. To apply the Rational Method (sometimes called the FAA Method)
and hydrograph methods to estimate stormwater detention volume.
Riser Riser Tabulates a stage-discharge relationship for a perforated riser plate (Inlet Control).
Cir-Pipe Tabulates a stage-discharge relationship for a circular pipe, comparing inlet vs. outlet control.
Pipe Outlet
Rect-Pipe Tabulates a stage-discharge relationship for a box culvert, comparing inlet vs. outlet control.
Box Outlet
Rect-Pipe Tabulates a stage-discharge relationship for a spillway.
