Table 2 <br />SEDIMENTATION POND E DESIGN CALCUALTIONS <br />(Continued) <br />SPILLWAY DESIGN SUMMARY: <br />- Depth of flow is 0.5 ft. <br />- Velocity of flow is 5.2 fps <br />- Bottom of spillway is 1.5 ft below top of dam <br />- Width of spillway is 13.2 ft across bottom <br />- Side slopes are lv: 2h <br />- Gradient of spillway is 3% <br />EMERGENCY SPILLWAY CALCULATIONS: <br />Broad -crested Spillway Design: <br />(Applied Hydrology and Sedimentology for Disturbed Areas: Barfield, <br />Warner, Haan: 1981) <br />Q = 26.3 cfs <br />Maximum velocity 5.2 fps <br />2v:lh sideslopes <br />n = 0.04 <br />Slope = 0.03 ft/ft <br />Hec = 0.75 Fig 4B.14 <br />Hp = 0.86 Fig 4B.1 <br />Q' = 0.544(g) 1(Hec)3/2b <br />Q' = 0.544 (32.2)1(0.75)3/2(100) = 201 <br />Q = 26.3 = Q'(1.5b + 2 Hec)/150 <br />b = 13.2' <br />Q = 201 (1.5b + 2(0.75))/150 <br />Thus, Q of 26.3 is less than Q of 28.5, and spillway is adequately designed. <br />Spillway is 13.2 ft. width across the bottom. Depth of spillway is 1.5 ft. <br />minimum. Will need to riprap emergency spillway. <br />*NOTE: Although required sediment storage is .58 rather than original <br />determination of .64, the dewatering orifice will remain at the relative <br />elevation of 51.8 feet. <br />- 8-10 - Revised 10/11/88 <br />
