Drainage Design Truly Understand What Year Event Really Means

Roadside channels play an important role in the highway drainage system as the initial conveyance for highway runoff. Roadside channels capture sheet flow from the highway pavement and backslope and convey that runoff to larger channels or culverts within the drainage system. This initial concentration of runoff may create hydraulic conditions that are erosive to the soil that forms the
