Design Criteria:
Table 39.4
Soil type = C
Construction Period = 2 years
Design Storm ARI = 3 months (2 years cons.)
Time of Concentration, t0 = 15 minutes
Table 39.5 Required Surface Area = 292 m²/ ha
Required Surface Volume = 350 m³/ ha
a) SETTLING ZONE
L2 = L1 - 2 (d1/2) x z = 14.00 m
The required depth for the sediment storage zone which must be at least 300mm can
be calculated from the following realtionship:
V2 = Z² y2³ - Z y2²(W 2 + L2) + y2 (W 2 L2)
use trial & error;
y2 = 0.1 m V2 = 8.28 m³
0.9
Page 39-16 y2 = 0.10 m > 0.3 m
V2 = 8.28 m³ > 48 m³
