Chenal Valley Improvement District 14
Regional Storm Water Detention Facility
Developed Drainage Basin 376 Acres
25 Year Developed Conditions Release 549.1 CFS
100 Year Developed Conditions Release 796.1 CFS
Basin Area below District 14 Detention Facility and Taylor Loop Road
Basin Area 77.05 Acres
Additional Stream Length 2510 Linear Feet
Assume average channel flow velocity of6 6 Feet per second
Travel time 418 Seconds
7 Minutes
Time of concentration for lower basin is 42 Minutes
Based on 35 minute time of concentration for detention area
25 year event
I (intensity for 42 minute storm) =3.9 in/hr
c (runoff coefficient)0.6
Area of 77.05 Acres
Additional Flow 180 CFS
Total Flow to Taylor Loop based on CV District 14 Detention
Detention Area 549.1 CFS
Downstream Area 180 CFS
Total 729.1 CFS
Quick Check Comparison
Total Drainage Area 453 Acres
25 year event
I (intensity for 30 minute storm) =5 in/hr
c (runoff coefficient)0.65
Rate 1472.4 CFS
Use 1,472 cfs to be conservative.
Much of the upper basin is still undeveloped and it is probable that small
localized detention facilities will be of minimal benefit
Analysis of Double 48" RCP under Taylor Loop at Gooch
Combined area is 25 Square Feet
Probable Velocity 8 Feet per second
Max Flow Rate 201 CFS
Flow through new box culvert under Taylor Loop, East of Gooch Road
Total flow 1472 CFS
Flow through Dbl 48"201 CFS
Net flow at new Box Culvert 1271 CFS
Preliminary Design for Taylor Loop Box Culvert
Sufficient headroom for a 5' tall box culvert
Maximum span of 12'
Dbl Culvert provides 5 x 12 x 2 = 120 square feet of waterway opening
Full flow velocity of 1171 cfs/120 sf =10.6 feet per second
Comment:
The velocities in the 48" culverts and 5' x 12' Box Culverts are reasonable
For preliminary design proceed with these structures
Note: Detailed analysis shows overtopping of Taylor Loop with this configuration
consider 6' tall dbl box to increase capacity. Further investigation of potential
utility conflicts and downstream impacts.Follow up Req'd
Preliminary Design for Gooch Drive South Box Culvert
Sufficient headroom for a 5' tall box culvert
Maximum span of 12'
Use single box section with overflow over Gooch Road North
Capacity of box culvert at 8 feet per second 480 CFS
Balance of flow over Gooch Road South
Total Flow 1472 CFS
Dbl 48"201 CFS
Single Box Culvert 480 CFS
Overflow 791 CFS
Conservative overflow velocity is 3 feet per second
Therefore: 263 square feet of flow area for overflow
Sufficient overflow area in all likelihood exists
South of Taylor Loop Road, but need to confirm with
overland flow analysis Follow up Req'd
Summary of Preliminary Design - South of Taylor Loop Road
Drainage Area 453 Acres
25 year flow 1472 CFS
Flow through Dbl 48" Culverts 201 CFS
Flow through Box Culvert on Gooch South 480 CFS
Flow over Gooch South 791 CFS
Flow under Taylor Loop in Dbl Box Culvert 1271 CFS
Open Channel Flow Analysis South of Taylor Loop Road
20 foot flat bottom channel
4 foot depth
1.5% Long Slope
3;1 side slopes
Roughness, n=0.045
Capacity 1035 CFS
Velocity 8 feet per second
As an alternative
24 foot flat bottom channel
3.7 foot depth
1.5% Long Slope
3;1 side slopes
Roughness, n=0.045
Capacity 1028 CFS
Velocity 8 feet per second
With lower n values
20 foot flat bottom channel
3.3 foot depth
1.5% Long Slope
3;1 side slopes
Roughness, n=0.030
Capacity 1077 CFS
Velocity 10.9 feet per second
As an alternative
24 foot flat bottom channel
3 foot depth
1.5% Long Slope
3;1 side slopes
Roughness, n=0.03
Capacity 1048 CFS
Velocity 10.6 feet per second
Conclusion for preliminary design:
The new ditch section, down stream from the double box culvert installation on
Taylor Loop Road will require a 20 foot to 24 foot wide flat bottom ditch section with 3:1
side slopes and flow depths of 3 feet to 4 feet. Total easement width required will be
approximately 45 feet.Follow up Req'd
Downstream Considerations
Glen Valley Drive
Approximately 1.050 feet downstream of the Taylor Loop culvert crossing is the double culvert crossing
under Glen Valley Drive. The double corrugated metal arch pipe culvert crossing at this street has
approximately 18" of available head on the upstream head wall. The culverts slope approximately 3"
across a distance of 40 feet.
Prior to overtopping Glen Valley Drive the culverts can be expected to achieve a velocity of
approximately 8 feet per second for a flow rate of 30 sf x 8 = 240 CFS.
This rudimentary analysis of the street crossing indicates that the existing culvert crossing under Glen
Valley Drive is not adequate to pass the 25 year event under the roadway.
Once overtopped water flow to the west and north along Highlander Drive and to the east and north to
the low area on Clancy Court. Form anecdotal information the existing underground storm
drainage piping will not accommodate the 25 year event
Consideration of additional downstream improvements is warranted..
Improvements to the drainage structures under Taylor Loop upstream form this
location will marginally increase flow rates.
