Manning's N Values

This document provides reference tables for Manning's roughness coefficients (n values) for different channel and pipe materials. It lists n values for natural and constructed channels, closed conduits flowing partially full, and corrugated metal pipes. The tables give n value ranges according to the material, shape, surface properties, vegetation, and other characteristics of the channel or pipe section.
