Overview
Objectives:
This research project's objective is to determine volumes of water run-off of roadway in order to define the bases of hydraulic dimensioning and the practical realization of the following works, works of retention, mud tank, basin of retention/infiltration. Further it is aimed to create the bases for a new standard.
Methodology:
To meet the objectives, the methodology should be able to:
- To integrate different methods of sizing retention and treatment of floor water works, including the introduction of a method close to the reality of events (unit hydrograph, continuous simulation, rain series)
- To define the procedures, hydrological principles, hydrogeological and computational techniques to be selected based on the problems and the situation and identify the various types of structures
- It can be checked by any sensitivity study the rainfall system / watershed / road / flow / infiltration system and / or retention
- To allow verification and study of the consequences of overflow storage basins (retention, infiltration)
- To ensure the implementation of the "Instructions" 2002 SAEFL
- To give constructive guidance on the various works to achieve namely retention structures, infiltration and retention basins combined / filtration
