Initial Abstraction, Ia
S I a 2.0
Ia is all losses before runoff begins. It includes water retained insurface depressions, water intercepted by vegetation, evaporation,
and infiltration. Ia is highly variable but generally is correlated with
soil and cover parameters.

Curve Numbers
The major factors that determine CN are the hydrologic soil
group (HSG), cover type, treatment, hydrologic condition,
and antecedent runoff condition (ARC). Another factorconsidered is whether impervious areas outlet directly to the
drainage system (connected) or whether the flow spreads
over pervious areas before entering the drainage system
(unconnected).

Group A soils have low runoff potential and high infiltration rates even when thoroughly
wetted. They consist chiefly of deep, well to excessively drained sand or gravel and have a highrate of water transmission (greater than 0.30 in/hr). Soil Texture: Sand, loamy sand, or sandy
loam
Group B soils have moderate infiltration rates when thoroughly wetted and consist chiefly of
moderately deep to deep, moderately well to well drained soils with moderately fine to
moderately coarse textures. These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission (0.15-0.30in/hr). Soil Texture: Sil t loam or loam
Group C soils have low infiltration rates when thoroughly wetted and consist chiefly of soils
with a layer that impedes downward movement of water and soils with moderately fine to fine
texture. These soils have a low rate of water transmission (0.05-0.15 in/hr). Soil Texture:
Sandy clay loam
Group D soils have high runoff potential. They have very low infiltration rates when
thoroughly wetted and consist chiefly of clay soils with a high swelling potential, soils with a
permanent high water table, soils with a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface, and shallow
soils over nearly impervious material. These soils have a very low rate of water transmission (0-
0.05 in/hr). Soil Texture: Clay loam, silty clay loam, sandy clay, si lty clay, or clay

Time of Concentration and Travel Time
• Travel Time (Tt) is the time it takes water to travel
from one location to another in a watershed. It is
typically a component of Tc.
• Time of Concentration (Tc) is the time for runoff totravel from the hydraulically most distance point of
the watershed to a point of interest in the watershed.

Factors Affecting Tt and Tc
• Surface roughness
• Channel shape and flow patterns
• Slope

Water Movers through a Watershed as:
• Sheet flow
• Shallow concentrated flow
• Open channel flow, or
• A combination of these.

Shallow Concentrated Flow
• After a maximum of 300 feet, sheet flow usually
becomes shallow concentrated flow.

Segment BC: Shallow concentrated flow; unpaved;
s = 0.01 ft/ft; and L = 1,400 ft.
Segment CD: Channel flow; Manning’s n = .05;
flow area (a) = 27 ft2; wetted perimeter (pw) =
28.2 ft; s = 0.005 ft/ft; and L = 7,300 ft.

Graphical Peak Discharge Method
• The peak discharge equations used is:
pmu p QF Aqq
where:
q p = peak discharge (cfs)
qu = unit peak discharge (csm/in)
Am = drainage area (mi2)
Q = runoff (in)
F p
= pond and swamp adjustment factor
8/13/2019 TR55 Presentation

Rational Method(used for areas of less than 50 acres)
Q = C i A where:
Q = Peak rate of runoff in cubic feet per second
C = Runoff coefficient, an empirical coefficientrepresenting a relationship between rainfall
and runoff
i = Average intensity of rainfall for the time ofconcentration (Tc) for a selected design storm
A = Drainage area in acres

Lets convert In-Ac/Hr to CFS:
[(1ft / 12 In) x (43,560 ft2 / Ac)] / 3600 Sec / Hr =
1.008 CFS / In-Ac / Hr
The degree of accuracy doesnot warrant a units conversion
factor (constant) of
1.008!!
