In attached map is shown the street lay out for a district of city for which
a sewage system is to be designed . For purpose of design, the average
daily flow of domestic sewage will be 180 L/c.d . and the population will
be 130 persons per hectare . It is also assumed that we wish ratio of the
depth of flow in the pipe to the vertical size of pipe would be 70% and
30% will be empty for ground water infiltration . It is necessary to have
the top of the sewer not less than 2.00 m. below the pavement surface .
Permitted depth of sewer is 6.00 m. below the pavement surface . An
intercepting sewer is to be placed along the highway and it is not going
to cross to the highway . Minimum and maximum velocities are 0.65
m/s and 3.0 m/s respectively . No pipe should be placed less than 200
mm. in diameter.

Determine the pipe size and velocity of flow , used to drain an )a(
area of 270,000 m2 with slope 1 : 300 . If the time of concentration equal
to 50 minutes and runoff coefficient may taken as 0.35 . For rainfall
intensity use the formula I = 750 / ( t + 10 ) where the intensity in

( c ) Vitrified clay sewer with pipe diameter of 203 mm. is being placed
in a 0.60 m wide trench at depth of 6 m to the pipe invert . The
