1 Stormwater Engineering Bioretention Design Bill Hunt, PE, Ph.D. Extension Specialist & Assistant Professor NCSU-BAE Bioretention Design Six Step Process 1 Determine Volume to Treat 2 Determine Surface Area Required 3 Select Soil Type 4 Decide Depth of Soil 5 Size Underdrain Pipes 6 Select Appropriate Overflow Bypass Treatment Volume: Background Collect Data: Watershed Area Watershed Composition (rooftop, lawn, parking lot) If permeable areas: Soil Type & Group? Treatment Volume: Background Determine Curve Number: Function of Land Use and Soil Group Range from mid 30 s to 98 Higher # More Runoff Developed by USDA-NRCS Treatment Volume: Curve Numbers Land Use/ Cover Soil Group A B C D Parking Lot/ Rooftop Lawn, etc (grass cover 50-75%) Lawn, etc (grass cover > 75%) Woods in Fair Condition

2 Composite CN or Not? Treatment Volume: Curve Numbers Composite? Not issue if only one land use/soil type If distinct regions Do NOT composite If watershed is well mixed Composite Treatment Volume: Curve Numbers Composite? Use following Equation: CN COMP = %W/S A CN A + %W/S B CN B Where A & B are Land Use-Soil Type zones within Watershed (W/S) Treatment Volume: Calculation Three Part Process: 1 Decide Design Storm 2 Determine Runoff from Each Land Use/ Soil Type 3 Multiply by Watershed Area Treatment Volume: Calculation 1 Decide Design Storm: Varies from 0.50 to 1.50 Dependent on... frequency of rainfall developed condition 1.00 Typically Used Treatment Volume: Calculation 2 Runoff Produced per Land Use/Soil Type: Use Curve Numbers (CN) Calculate Storage Volume on and within Soil (S) S = 1000 CN - 10 where S in inches 2

3 Treatment Volume: Calculation 2 Runoff Produced per Land Use/Soil Type: Use Storage Volume (S) and Design Storm (P) to Calculate Runoff (R/O) Employ SCS Equation Treatment Volume: Calculation 3 Multiply by Watershed Area Volume of Runoff to Treat Vol TREAT = A R/O R/O = (P - 0.2S) 2 (P + 0.8S) Treatment Volume: Example Treatment Volume: Example Given: Total Watershed Area of 10,000 sf 2,000 sf of rooftop 8,000 sf of dense growth lawn Find: Volume of Water To Treat from P=1.00 Treatment Volume: Example Find Volume of Runoff from Rooftop 1 Determine Curve Number: 98 2 Find Soil & Surface Storage, S: S = 1000/ S = 0.20 Treatment Volume: Example Find Volume of Runoff from Rooftop 3 Find Runoff, R/O, from Design Storm P=1.00 S = 0.20 R/O = ( ) 2 ( ) R/O = 0.80 inches 3

4 Treatment Volume: Example Find Volume of Runoff from Rooftop 4 Find Total Volume to Treat, Vol TREAT R/O = 0.80 Watershed Area = 2000 sf Vol TREAT = 2000 sf 0.80 in Vol TREAT = 1600 sf-in (133 cf) Treatment Volume: Example Find Volume of Runoff from Lawn 1 Determine Curve Number: 74 2 Find Soil & Surface Storage, S = 3.51 in 3 Runoff Amount, R/O = 0.02 in 4 Treatment Volume, Vol TREAT = 160 sf-in Treatment Volume: Example Find Total Volume from Roof & Lawn Vol TREAT (roof) = 1600 sf-in Vol TREAT (lawn) = 160 sf-in Vol TREAT (total) = 1760 sf-in Vol TREAT (total) = 147 cf Bioretention Surface Area Factor of Vol TREAT and Allowable Depth Vol TREAT previously determined Bioretention Surface Area Allowable Water Depth range from 6 to 18 PG Co, Maryland specifies 6 Author suggest 6-9 reasonable for most applications only if VERY SANDY application (e.g. in Sandhills) Bioretention Surface Area Divide Vol TREAT by Average Depth S/A = Vol TREAT D where S/A = surface area (sf) Vol TREAT = volume stored in B-R (sf-in or cf) D = Average Depth of Water (in or ft) 4

5 B-R R Surface Area: Example Given: 1760 sf-in of water to be stored in Bio-Retention area Normal Depth = 9 Find: Required Surface Area B-R R Surface Area: Example S/A = 1760 sf-in 9 in S/A = 200 sf Bioretention Soil: Type What is In-Situ Soil? Will site be compacted during construction? Alabama Study found Infiltration Rates in Sand Decrease 10 fold If In-Situ Soil tighter than Sandy Loam OR Significant Construction, then Bioretention Soil: Type Underdrains and Fill Soil Needed Bioretention Soil: Type Selecting Fill Soil Type 1 By Permeability: K range from 0.5 to 6 per hour 1 to 2 in/hr (REC) 2 Recipe 85% - 88% Sand 8-12% Fines (Silt+Clay) 2-5% Organic Source 5

6 Bioretention Soil: Type Selecting Fill Soil Type 3 Mix of Known Fill Media 20-30% Ball Field Mix 70-80% Medium Sand In Phosphorus Sensitive Waters choose low-medium P-Index (15 to 30 in NC) How Deep does the soil media need to be? Bioretention Soil: Depth Vegetation Depth (ft) Comments Grass Minimum Shrubs/Trees Minimum Shrubs/Trees Optimum Shrubs/Trees > 4.0 Sufficient but Extra Cost Bioretention Soil: Depth Think about the Pollutant TSS? Metals? Phosphorus? Nitrogen? Fecal Coliform? Temperature? No Required Depth Soil Depth > 12 inches Soil Depth > 12 inches Soil Depth > 30 inches No Required Depth Soil Depth > 36 inches + 4 Hours +18 Hours BR Water Table Depth Manual states 6 is closest high w.t. can be to the surface? Is that too restrictive? Depends on Depth of Bioretention area Recommend: No W.T. within 2 feet of bottom B-R Area 6
