Flood Runof
Flood runof results from the following:
1.Short-duration highly intense rainfall
2.Long-duration low intensity rainfall
3.Snowmelt
4.Failure of dam or levee system

1. Rational Method
Estimation of peak flows is required for
hydraulic structures. The commonly
used method is the Rational Method
given the formula;
Q 0.2755CIA
where:
Q = peak flows, m3/sec
C = runof coefficient
I = rainfall intensity (in mm/h) for
the required return period,
corresponding to a duration equal to
the time of concentration of the
