3.2.3.6 Design Example<br />

Basic Data<br />

Small commercial lot 150 feet length x 100 feet wide located<br />

• Drainage area treated by filter (A) = 0.2 acres<br />

• Run<strong>of</strong>f coefficient (R v ) = 0.70<br />

• Slope (S) = 4%<br />

• Depth (Y) = 0.5 inches<br />

• Manning’s n = 0.25<br />

• Time <strong>of</strong> Concentration (t c ) = 8 minutes<br />

Calculate Maximum Discharge Loading Per Foot <strong>of</strong> Filter Strip Width<br />

Using Manning’s equation again:<br />

Calculate the Water Quality Peak Flow<br />

Compute the WQ V in inches over the drainage area (thus expressed as Q wv ) using equation 4-<br />

Qwv = P * Rv<br />

= 1.2*0.7 = 0. 84inches<br />

Compute modified CN for 1.2-inch rainfall (P=1.2); using Q wv (in inches) for Q:<br />
