A parking lot catchment of 1.7 Ha is being routed through a small forebay into a bioretention cell. The system should be designed to require cleaning no more often than once per year.
A parking lot catchment of 1.7 Ha is being routed through a small forebay into a bioretention cell. The design flow rate is 0.02 m³/s. The system should be designed to require cleaning no more often than once per year.
The volume is calcualted as:
The volume is calculated as:
:<math>V_{f}=1.7\times 0.8\times 0.6\times 1=0.816 \m^{3}</math>
:<math>V_{f}=1.7\times 0.8\times 0.6\times 1=0.816\ m^{3}</math>
The area required to keep the forebay to 0.15 m depth maximum is calculated as:
:<math>A_{f}=\frac{0.816}{0.1}</math>
