Flood Estimation
Improved Rational Formula
Q₅₀ = 0.278 x C x I x A
Where,
Q₅₀ = Design Flood (m3/s) for 50 year return period
C = Runoff coefficient between 0 and 1.0
A = Catchment Area (Sq.Km)
I = 50 yr Rainfall intensity in mm/h lasting for tc hour
duration, where tc-time of concentration
Runoff Coefficient C
The value of 'C' depends on the nature of soil,soil cover and location of

tc = 3.2468 hrs
tc = 194.81 mins
Where:-
L=Length of Longest Stream
H=Height of farthest above the point of interest along the river.

R = 25.3 cm
F = 0.850 Ref. above table
C = 0.456 ( Rx F)^0.20
C = 0.840
i) Tc h ratio ( from map fig 4 of RBF (16) is based on time concentration = 0.570
& Ratio of 50yrs T hrs Rainfall / 50yrs 24hrs Rainfall)
ii) 1 h ratio ( from map fig 4 of RBF (16) is based on time concentration = 0.380
& Ratio of 50yrs T hrs Rainfall / 50yrs 24hrs Rainfall)
Tc h ratio 0.570
iii) Coeff. K' = = = 1.500
1 h ratio 0.380
iv) 50 year 24 hrs rainfall from plate 8 of cwc report =220x1.15 = 253 mm
v) (a) R 50 ( 1 ) = Ref. Fig. No.3.6 of RBF-16 = 1.15 x 80 = 92.00 mm
vi) (b) R 50 ( Tc) = K xR50 (1) = 1.50 x 92.000 = 138.00 mm
R50 (tc) 138.00
vii) Intensity of Rainfall (I) = R 50 ( Tc) = = = 42.5 mm/hr

A. Velocity Calculation of Existing Bridge m
Where Q-Discharge
A-Area of across the River=BxY
R=A/P = Area/ Perimete=BxY/(B+2Y)
S-Slope at Bridge Site
Q/(BxY) =
245.24/(3 x 6.5x4.45) = 1/0.05x(3 x 6.5x4.45)/(3 x 6.5+2x4.45)^2/3x0.004545^1/"2
2.83 m/sec = 2.84 m/sec
OK
Flow is Sub-Critical
As Existing Bridge is RCC Box. Therefore Vertical Clearance requirement is Zero for Existing Bridge.
Free Board at U/S Side of Ex. Bridge should be estimated including afflux, Because Waterway requirment not fulfilled
at U/S Side of Ex. Bridge.
Formation Level
q) Minimum Formation Level Required = CHFL+Afflux+Free Board = 240.580
r) Existing Formation Level = 242.538
s) Hence Proposed Formation Level = 242.605
