Surface Water Drainage

Consider Soakaway Method

Local Planning Authority have advised against the use of soak-aways on this specific site. Ground conditions
on site are seen to be made up of heavy clayey soils which would indicate a generally poor rate of soil
infiltration.

It is also established that suitable areas for potential soak-away locations on site are restricted and do not
provide adequate clear distance to comply with Building Regulations (Approved Document) Part H.

Consider Surface Water Attenuation Method

No maximum allowable discharge rate has been imposed for the disposal of surface water on this site.

Suggest restriction of surface water discharge to approximately 5.0 l/s [or within IH124 1 in 100 year + 30%
climate change 'greenfield' runoff rate for this site - refer to Page 3.

Design Parameters:
Total area of site = 2035 m2 [0.2035ha ]
Proposed site impermeable Area = 1075 m2 [0.108ha ]
Accommodate below gound storage to 1 in 100 year + 30% climate change.

Greenfield Run-off rates - site pre-development

Using Microdrainage application of IH124 (Method) to establish greenfield run-off rates:

1 year = 1.4 l/s plus 30% climate change: = 1.82 l/s

30 year = 3.3 l/s plus 30% climate change: = 4.29 l/s
100 year = 4.3 l/s plus 30% climate change: = 5.59 l/s

Calculated using the following parameters: Area of Site = 0.2035ha

SAAR = 691
Soil = 0.45

Peak Run-off Rate - Post Development

Percentage Runoff equations to WALLINGFORD PROCEDURE Volume 4 'The Modified Rational Method '
Using The Rational formula :- Qp = CiA

Where:
Qp = discharge rate
C = Coefficient where C = Cv x Cr (Cv = volumetric coefficient & Cr = routing coefficient - formula 7.19)
i = rainfall intensity (mm/hr)
i = mean rainfall intensity (mm/hr)
A = Area (ha ) drained hard surfaces 1075 m2 = 0.108 ha
2
(Total site area = 2035 m = 0.203ha )
(Other site area = 560 m2 = 0.056 ha )
(Soft site area = 400 m2 = 0.040 ha )

For Qp in l/s (litres per second) apply 0.36 to formula :- Qp = CiA0.36

Determine C:
Cv = 0.8 for urbanised catchment and Cr = 1.3
C = 1.04

Determine i (1 year return period storm):

M5-60min - 19.5 mm (FSR maps)
r - 0.40 (FSR maps)
D - 5 min (rainfall duration appropriate to time of concentration)
T - 1 year (return period)
Determine M5-D: (formula 6.4)

Z1 - 0.38 (from Fig. 6.3b Wallingford Procedure Vol.1)

:- M5-5 = 0.38 x 19.5

= 10.596 mm
Determine i for drainage design: (formula 6.7)
i = MT-D = 10.596
D (hrs) 3060
i = 127.156 mm/hr

Determine i (100 year return period storm):

Determine MT-D: (formula 6.5)
Z2 - 1.880 for M100 (interpolated from Table 6.2 for M5 (WALLINGFORD PROCEDURE Vol.1))
:- M100-5 = 1.88 x 7.41
= 13.9308 mm
Determine i for drainage design:
i = MT-D = 13.931
D (hrs) 560
i = 167.1696 mm/hr

:- 1 year Qp = CiA 0.36 = 1.04 x 54.24 x 0.108 0.36 = 16.845 l/s

:- 30 year Qp = CiA 0.36 = 1.04 x 127.16 x 0.108 0.36 = 39.489 l/s
:- 100 year Qp = CiA 0.36 = 1.04 x 167.17 x 0.108 0.36 = 51.915 l/s

Peak rates:
1 year + 30% climate change = 21.90 l/s
30 year + 30% climate change = 51.34 l/s
100 year +30% climate change = 67.49 l/s

Run-off Volume (100 year 6 hour duration) - Post Development

Percentage Runoff equation - formula 7.3 of WALLINGFORD PROCEDURE Volume 1.
Using The Rational formula :- PR = 0.829 PIMP + 25.0 SOIL + 0.078 UCWI - 20.7
Where:
PR = percentage run-off
PIMP = percentage of impermeable area (hard surfacing)
SOIL = soil type (from FSR maps)
UCWI = urban catchment wetness index (using Wallingford Procedure Fig. 9.7 for SAAR)
* Note: in formula 7.3 where PR < 40% PIMP, PR to be made equal to 40% PIMP

2
Determine PIMP of total catchment: 2035 m
2
1075 m = 52.8 % of the site area connected to drainage system

Post development: PR = [0.829 x 52.8] + [25.0 x 0.45] + [0.078 x 70] - 20.7 = 39.8 %

Determine 100yr return period 6hr duration event:

M5-60min - 19.5 mm (FSR maps)

r - 0.40 (FSR maps)
D - 360 min (rainfall duration)
T - 100 year (return period)
Determine M5-D:
Z1 - 1.55 (from Fig. 6.3b Wallingford Procedure Vol.1)
:- M5-360 = 1.55 x 19.5
= 30.23 mm
Determine MT-D:
Z2 - 1.81 for M100 (interpolated from Table 6.2 for M5 (Wallingford Procedure Vol.1))
:- M100-360 = 1.81 x 30.23
= 54.7073 mm

Allowance for + 30% climate change:

M100-360 + 30% = 54.7073 x 1.3 = 71.1194 mm

PR Equation:- Volume of runoff = Rainfall (mm) / 1000 x Total Catchment Area (m 2) x PR / 100

Run-off volume for site area with run-off: 39.8 %

3
Total volume of rainfall :- 71.12 / 1000 x 1075 x 0.40 = 30.43 m
