==Size a bioretention cell with no underdrain for constrained depth==
==Size a bioretention cell receiving flows directly to the storage reservoir for a constrained depth==
If there is a constraint to the depth (''d<sub>T</sub>'') of the practice, calculate the required practice footprint area (''A<sub>p</sub>''), as:
