5 STORM SEWER COLLECTION SYSTEM

5.1 DEFINITION AND PURPOSE

Stormsewersare commonly thought of as closed conduit drainage systemsbelow

the surface of the groundthat collect surfacewater createdfromrainfall or other
forms of precipitation. However,storm systems mayconsist of one or any
combinationof pipes, ditches, culverts, openchannelsand stormwater management
facilities that carrystormwaterflows.

5.2 PERMITTEDUSES

Stormsewersshall be designedto collect storm water dischargefrom perviousand

imperviousareasboth on private lands andpublic lands via catchbasinsandstorm
private drain connections.Indirect connections
of foundationdrains(footing tile) via
sumppumpsto storm PDCsare permittedl Drainageof foundation drains (footing
tiles) shall be in accordance with City of LondonDrainageBy-lawNo. WM-4.
StormDrainageon private propertyrequiresa building permitbeforeinstallation.

5.3 LOCATIONAND ALIGNMENT

Generallystormsewersare to be locatedin front of, or are in locations accessibleto

eachlot andblock facing a City street. Stormsewersare to be located 1.5 mfrom
the centre line of the road (see DWG.U.C.C.-1Mfor details andadditional design
information).
Stormsewersare to be located on the outside loop of a proposedcrescentwith the
maintenance
holesat a 1.5 moffset fromthe centreline of the road.

Wherea maintenancehole is designedto be located within the area of a roundabout,

stormmaintenance holes are permitted to be located within the grassedarea of the
roundabout,providedany proposedlandscapingdoesnot hinder the accessto the
maintenancehole.

5.3.1 StormSewerson Private Property

Stormsewerson private property are regulatedby the Ontario Building Code(OBC).

Wherethere are no specific regulations in the OBC,details from this manualwill
apply.

5.4 DRAINAGE/SUBDRAINAGE AREA PLANS

Drainage/sub-drainage area limits for which sewers are to be designed for are to
contain and follow the lot/block lines to the proposedmaintenanceholes located on
the R.O.W.

Note: All areas and coefficients are to be shownfor eachdrainage/sub-drainageareas.

5.5 EXTERNAL WATERSHEDLIMITS AND DRAINAGE AREAS

Whendesign abuts undevelopedareas, identify the external watershed limit to be

designedfor.

Note: All areas, coefficients and time of concentrations are to be shownfor all
drainageareas within external watershedlimits.

5.6 DESIGN CHART

Storm sewer design calculations are to be completedon the standard design chart.
SeeFigure 5.1 for details and additional information.

5.7 PEAK FLOW CALCULATION

Flowsshall be calculated using the formula: Q=2.78xAxCxl

where: Q = peakflow (I/s)

A = area (hectares)
C = runoff coefficient
I = averagerainfall intensity (mm/hr)

5.8 DESIGN CRITERIA

5.8.1 Storm Desiqn Curve

Thecriterion usedin the design of storm sewersis generally to be basedon the 1 in

2 year City of LondonRainfall Intensity curve. (See Figure 5.2). Major overland flow
routes are to be designed for storms greater than a 2 year storm. This is explained
further in Section9.0, Grading.

5.8.2 Time of Concentration

a) The time of concentration for residential areas at the upstreamend of a system

shall be 19.0 minutes. For all other areas refer to Figure 5.3.

Environmental
andEngineering ServicesDepartment 5-2
TheCorporation
of the City of London
Updated:December 2005
 b) The time of concentration is to be adjusted whenlateral flows account for 50%
or morein the design flows.

i) Adjustedtime of concentrationshall be calculated using the formula:

(T~t)(Qt) + (Tc,)(QI)
(Qt + QI)

where: Tc-adj = adjusted time.of concentration (min.)

Tot = time of concentration in the trunk sewer(min.)
Qt = design flow in the trunk sewer(I/s)
Tc~ = time of concentrationin the lateral sewer(min.)
= design flow in the lateral sewer(I/s)

ii) Theadjusted time of concentration is useddownstream

of the junction
manhole.

5.8.3 Runoff Coefficients

Runoff coefficients are basedon the amountof impervious area for a particular land
use:
¯ Parks, open space and playgrounds 0.20
¯ Single family/semi detached 0.50
¯ Townhouse/rowhouse 0.65
¯ Apartments 0.65 - 0.70
¯ Commercial,
institutional and industrial 0.70 - 0.90
¯ Denselybuilt, paved 0.90

5.8.4 Intensity

Rainfall intensity is to be taken from Figure 5.2 "Rainfall Intensity - DurationCurvefor

Storm Sewer Design". Also, see the City of London Subdivision & Development
GuideManualAppendixN for details and additional information on rainfall intensity
figures.

5.9 MANNINGS ROUGHNESSCOEFFICIENT

use as maintenance hole adjustmentunits.

5.14.13 HeadLosses

a) Generally, whenvelocities in the downstream pipe from a maintenancehole

exceeda velocity of 1.2 m/s, headlosses mustbe accountedfor in the designof
the sewer.In order to absorbheadlosses that mayexist in maintenanceholes, it
maybe necessaryto improvethe benchingin the maintenance hole or increase
the size of the downstreampipe wherepossible. Loweringthe crownof the
outgoing sewerbelow the crownof the incomingsewerby the amountequal to
the headloss, however,is the mosteffective methodof accountingfor headloss
in mostcases.

b) Drops in maintenance holes to compensatefor Head Loss (HL) shall be

calculatedusingthe followingformula:
HL = 2

5.17 EASEMENTS

Aneasement is required to ensurethe municipalservices andutilities crossingthe

site can be properly installed and maintained by the appropriate authority
(municipality or private). Aneasement providesthe right to useprivate land for
specific purposewhichis in the public’s interest.

All manholeslocated within easementsrequire surface access. Refer to Section

5.14.14for accessdetails. Maintenance
vehicle accessis not required for rear lot
catch basin manholes.

5.17.1 Typesof Easements

a) Municipal (Servicing) Easements

Are required for watermains,sanitary & storm sewers, catchbasins, drains,

stormwatermanagement ponds,channelsand/or accessroads that cross a site
andwhichare maintainedby the City.

Note: Typically, easements

are not required for rear yard catchbasins.If rear
yard catchbasinsare designedto receive water from municipal lands,
suchas parklands, easements are required.

Temporaryeasementsare required for watermains,sanitary & storm sewers,

drains, stormwatermanagement ponds,channelsand/or accessroads that cross
a site temporarily. Theservices in the easementare to be maintainedby the
ownerof the services.

5.17.2 EasementWidths

Environmentaland EngineeringServices Department 5-22

TheCorporationof the City of London
Updated: December2005
 Easementwidths are determined by the depth of cover from the centerline of the
road/ground to the invert of a sewer or watermain. Figure 5.8 shows how an
easement width is determined. The minimumwidth of a sewer easement shall be
4.8 m (2.4 mper side).

5.18 STORM SEWERINLET AND OUTLET STRUCTURES- HEADWALLS

Headwallsare required at the end of all storm sewer systems which provide for a
transition from the storm sewer to an openchannel, river, creek, SWMpond or other
receiving bodyof storm water. In somecasesheadwallsare required at the inlet of a
storm sewerand/or large storm drain.

5.18.1 Types of Headwalls

The following headwall designs are based on the velocity and in certain cases the
diameter of the storm sewer, which was taken from Municipal WorksDesign Manual
(Municipal Engineers Association - MEA)and Ontario Provincial Standard Drawings.

Thereare five types of headwall designsand they are as follows:

a) Under 1.3 m/s with pipes diameters under 600 mm- see OPSD804.03 for
details and additional design information.

b) Under 2.1 m/s - MEAType I (using OPSD804.04 where applicable, or detail

design modifying OPSD804.04)

c) 2.1 m/s to 2.7 m/s - MEAType II (using OPSD804.04 where applicable, or

detail design modifying OPSD
804.04; and 1 baffle post)

d) 2.7 m/s to 4.6 m/s - MEAType III (using OPSD804.04 where applicable, or
detail design modifying OPSD
804.04; and 3 baffle posts)

e) 4.6 m/s to 10.0 m/s - MEATypeIV (stilling basin), or detail design.

5.18.2 ConcreteStren.qth

The concrete for all headwalls is to have a minimumstrength of 30 MPawith a 5%to

7%air entrainment and 70 to 90 mmslump.

5.18.3 Chamfers

All exposedcorners of all headwalls should be chamfered25 mmor moredepending

on the size of the headwall.

 5.18.4 Weepin.q Tiles

Weepingtiles are to be provided on each side at the base of the sewer outlet and
extendedthrough the headwall. Onlarger headwalls they are placed on the side or
wing walls.

5.18.5 Baffle Posts

Baffle posts are to be provided for sewer flows between 2.1 m/s and 4.6 m/s. The
location of the posts are per the type of headwall (refer to Municipal WorksDesign
Manual). The height of the baffle posts should be equal to the full depth of flow.
Sizing of the posts are 1/6 the size of the pipe diameter together with reinforcing
bars.

5.18.6 Grill/Grates

Hot dipped galvanized grills/grates are to be placed over the storm outlets
horizontally or vertically as required and should be fixed to the headwallwith anchor
bolts. Grills and grates shall complywith OPSD 804.05.

5.18.7 Railing

A railing is required on all headwallswhichexceed1.0 m in height from the top of the

headwall to the proposedtop of slope. See OPSD980.101for details and additional
design information. All headwallsare to havea swale at the top of the structure to
allow for surface drainage.

5.18.8 Rip Rap/RockProtection

Rip rap is to be constructed at the end of all headwalls of all storm sewer systems
and is to be placed in accordance with OPSD810.01 and the following design
criteria:

a) on the bottom and sides up to design water levels;

b) downstream until the projection of the side walls meet the channel side slopes
at half the design water depth of flow; and

c) for headwallsat creeks and rivers, extend rip rap or gabion protection to creek
or river.

Protection is to provide a smoothhydraulic flow for headwall discharge and creek or

river flows.

Note: Rip rap design information etc. is to be in compliance with OPSS-

1004. The minimumsize of rip rap is 100 mmand the maximum size is
200 mm.Rock protection shall be well-graded in sizes ranging from
100mmto 500mm.
