Drainage Pipe Capacity
NC-2009 SSc6.1:Stormwater Design—Quantity Controlposted by Jatuwat Varodompun on
Can we count the capacity of underground drainage pipes as the retention capacity? The pipe capacity will then add to the stormwater retention capacity.
Peak discharge/flow rate
NC-2009 SSc6.1:Stormwater Design—Quantity Controlposted by hana manai on
Which formula do you use to calculate peak flow rate (1 and 2-year, 24hours). I am using NRCS (SCS) TR-55 Graphical Discharge Method. Is that recommanded?

Blue Roof
NC-2009 SSc6.1:Stormwater Design—Quantity Controlposted by Jamison Hill on
As part of NYC's blue roof requirement, roofs must provide 24 hour detention detention for the 2-yr design storm and an equivalent peak runoff rate equal to a curve # of approx 50 for projects disc
Multiple Drainage Patterns
