<br />~ <br /> <br /> <br />CHAPTER V <br />HYDRAULiC ANALY5!S <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />Based upon the hydr~logic report, a study was made to estimate water surface <br />profiles for the 10-, 50- 100- and 500-year floods and to cetermine a one-foot <br />rise floodway for the lOO-year flood. Data supplied by field surveying was used <br />to construct a river model of the study reaCh. The basis for this model was the <br />HEC II, ~ater Surface Modeling Program of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers <br />(reference 3). location of cross sections used in the construction of the model <br />are shown on the flooded area maps, Plates 3 through 8. Water surface profiles <br />generated by the model for the selected floods have been plotted on the flood <br />profiles, Plates 9 through 15, and the areal extent of flooding by the 100- and <br />SOD-year eyents are shown on the flooded area maps, Plates 3 through 8. <br /> <br />. <br />0, <br /> <br />Roughness coefficients, Manning's "n"values,wereestimatedbyf ield <br />observation at each cross section. The locations and values obtained are shown <br />in the Technical Addendum. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />Tables 5 and 6 show the water surface elevations at selected reference <br />points for the 10-, 50., 100-and500-yearfloods, along with thedi scharges <br />in cubic feet per second (CFS) used in the hydraulic analysis. water surface <br />elevations 3hown are for clear water conditions. De~ris accumul~tions on narrow <br />s~reams such as these could cause severe blockage, especially near bridges where <br />the channel narrows and thereby rai3€ the surfacede"Jtions signif:CJIrtly above <br />those shown. <br /> <br />" <br />'Iear <br /> <br />, <br />50 <br />Y€'ar <br /> <br />100 <br />Year <br /> <br />A one. foot rise floodway ~as calculated for the lOO-year flood.
