Why Storm Drains (rainwater systems)?
Design Principles Install piping large enough to handle rainfall in a reasonable amount of time Size system based on rate of rainfall
Rainfall Rate Map Omaha, NE Code design - 6” Rainfall per hour Source: National Standard Plumbing Code
Source: National Weather Service Mmmhhhh? Only 3.8 inches per hour
Roof Drains Four Types
Flat Roof – Drains
Flat Roofs – Flow Control
Overflow Drains
Site Drains
Catch Basin Locations
Types of Pipe for Site Drains Plastic Vitrified Clay Cast Iron Corrugated Galvanized
Manhole Placement
Engineering Design Determine Rainfall Determine Area Determine Number of Drains Determine Slope Available
