TITLE SHEET: METROTOWNE DRAINAGE DISCHARGE CALCULATION

2. INTRODUCTION: Initial estimate to determine Drainage Discharge for the

Proposed Land Development entitled “METROTOWNE”
located at Marcos Alvarez Avenue, Talon II, Las Pinas City.

3. DESIGN CODE: Design Guidelines, Criteria and Standards (DGCS) 2015

Volume-3 Water Engineering Projects

4. ASSUMPTIONS: Rainfall Return Period (Frequency) – 15 years

Rainfall Weather Station – NAIA

5. DESIGN CRITERIA AND PARAMETERS:

o Total Drainage Area (SM) - 19,907

o Runoff Coefficient - 0.80
o Road Gradient Parallel to drainage - 0.50%
o Road Crossfall - 1.50%
o Road Pavement Surface - PCC
o Manning’s Roughness Coefficient (n) - 0.015
o Horton’s Surface Roughness Coefficient (*) - 0.015

6. CALCULATIONS:

A. Calculation of Drainage Discharge:

Design Discharge is computed using he Rational Formula:

Q =CIA/3.60

Where:
Q = Maximum Flood Discharge (m3/sec)
C = Dimensionless Runoff Coefficient
I = Rainfall Intensity within the Time of Flood Concentration
(mm/hr)
A = Catchment Area (km2)

a) Rainfall Intensity Determination, I

NINOY AQUINO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Based on 40 Years of Record
Equivalent Average Intensity (in mm/hr) of Computed Extreme Value

The Drainage Area is quite small and the Overland Flow time (Time of Concentration) was
calculated less than 10minutes. Hence, Time of Concentration will be assumed to be 10min.

b) Design Discharge Using Rational Formula:

Q = CIA/3.60
= (0.80 * 252.60 * 19,907/1,000,000)/3.60
= 1.117 CMS

c) Pipe Capacity (Reinforced Concrete Pipe Culvert)

Q = AV

Where:

Q = Pipe Capacity, m3/sec

V = Velocity of Flow, m/sec
A = Pipe Cross-sectional Area, m2

Velocity of flow in pipe shall be determined using Manning’s Equation:

For 900mm DIAMETER RCP: (OUTFALL-1)

V = [1 / n] x [(3.1416 x D2)/4) / (3.1616 x D)] 2/3 x [S]1/2

= [1/n] x [D/4]2/3 x S1/2

= [1 / 0.015] x [0.90/4]2/3 x [0.50]1/2

V = 1.98 m/sec.

Q = AV

= (3.1416 x 0.902 / 4) x 1.98

Q = 1.261 CMS > 1.117 CMS (pipe exceeds allowable 80% Capacity)

The 900mm Diameter RCP is 89% of its full capacity. It exceeds the allowable 80% pipe
allowable capacity. Hence, we can assume the next bigger size 1050mm Diameter.

We proposed to provide 1050mm Diameter RCP to take care of other drainage discharges
that the future development may construct.
