1 APPENDIX C HYDROLOGIC AND HYDRAULIC TABLES AND CURVES PRECIPITATION TABLES Table C-1, page C-2, provides local data for use in designing drainage systems as discussed in Chapter 6. HYDROLOGIC SUPPLY CURVES FOR OVERLAND FLOW Figures C-1 through C-7, pages C-7 through C-13, represent the peak runoff rates from individual storm events of various durations, all of which have the same average frequency of occurrence. These curves are computed from Horton s equation given in Chapter 6, using a retardance coefficient in n = 0.04 and hydraulic gradient S = 1 percent. HYDRAULIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SELECTED DRAINAGE CHANNELS Tables C-2 through C-10, pages C-14 through C-22, present commonly used ditch sections, with cross-section areas and hydraulic radius, to facilitate selection of ditch size and shape.
