May have been useful to provide the attachment.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=4c81a3da-ed17-4369-a88f-4909ba5f4781&file=Floodplain_at_bridge.pdf
I have a strange issue. As shown on the attached sketch, a small creek is flooding over a road (approx 2').
Above/upstream of the bridge, the creek's banks completely contain the flow - but when it hits the bridge flows are forced around the concrete walls on either side of the road. Downstream...
Isn't it strange that there is no impact if left/right stations don't 'line up' from cross-section to cross-section?
E.g. Cross section 1 is 50' downstream from Cross section 2. They're both 30' wide, but cross section 1 runs from station 0 to 30' (left/right) and for some reason cross section...
Good day!
I've got a 50mm (2") sanitary forcemain that will have a high point anywhere between where I'm connecting and the sanitary pumping station (SPS) it's discharging into (approx. 60m or less than 200' between the two). I had a look at this fabulous catalogue that a eng-tips user posted...
Ron, thanks for your comments. The weeper is just to ensure the long-term performance of the foundation - the thought being that if they're sitting in a wet trench something could happen. Roof drains, as you suggest, will be directed to infiltration areas far away from the building.
My...
Been asked to conceptually design a weeping tile around a large (1000x750' or 325x230m) warehouse. Any suggestions as to where I should start?
Thanks in advance!

Cost of a yard hydrant is (hopefully) well under $1k; they're padlockable; you can easily connect a hose.
Traditional hydrant would be well over $5k...
Good day, guys and gals!
I've got a 2" water service provided to the site. I'm spec-ing a yard hydrant so that maintenance and/or cleaning of the sanitary pumping station (think: a large diameter, 30' deep manhole) can be pretty straightforward. Since I have the 2" service, I figure why not put...
Clearly adding all the flows (in Litres, say) that occur between 2:00 and 2:59 will give you a flow in L/hour.
Not really sure what you're looking for here.
Where I work, 100% of storm and sanitary sewers are CCTV inspected after installation...lots of "dirty videos" as the sanitary is often in use already by the time the CCTV is done!
Minimum clearance between a sewage holding tank and a well is 15m according to Ontario Canada's building code (Table 8.2.1.6.C if that helps at all).
Different excavations would definitely not be detrimental, as coloeng noted.
Do you know depth to (seasonally high) groundwater?
