    The document provides design criteria for a storm drainage system for a ceramic factory in Jeddah, KSA. It includes guidelines for rain water collection systems with a 3-chamber water tank for sludge separation and water filtration. Pipe diameter should be a minimum of 10 inches and catch basins verified for each building. Design slope should be a minimum of 1% and maximum of 10% for concrete, with culverts extending to finished grade. Storage and open channel considerations are also outlined, with the rational method provided to calculate design flow rates at inlets and through the system.

    CERAMIC FACTORY – JEDDAH, K.S.A.

    STORM DRAINAGE SYSTEMS DESIGN CRITERIA

    1. RAIN WATER COLLECTION SYSTEMS :


    a. The design shall be based on the classification of each structures, total roof area,
    pavement, other form of ground soil, etc. to locate the piped collection systems
    and shall be based on peak flows of fully developed factory compound with the
    hydraulic grade line being one foot or more below of each structure, gutter line or
    proposed final ground surface elevation to the new proposal of 1.0 meter to 2.5
    meter wide swale of each side of the compound with curb drain inlet, depends on
    the calculation result.
    b. Once the preliminary design of a piped collection system has been prepared, it shall
    locate the 3-chamber water tank for sludge separation, settling and pre-transfer to
    main water tank for filtration, the final process of water is for factory use, by reverse
    osmosis system.

    c. The minimum allowable pipe diameter shall be 10 inches.


    e. Catch basins shall be verify on site for each building.
    f. Complete flow, velocity, and hydraulic grade line computations, shall be provided for
    all portions of a piped collection system. Hydraulic grade lines shall be shown on the
    storm drainage profiles.

    2. PIPE LENGTH
    a. Culverts shall extend to where the crown of the pipe intersects finished grade.
    b. The length requirement, however, shall be subject to requirements for maintaining
    stream buffers.

    3. DESIGN SLOPE
    a. Velocities over 10 fps in a pipe of any material shall be considered a special design
    with particular attention required to pipe invert protection and the ability of the
    receiving waterway or detention facility to accept the flow without damage.
    b. The minimum allowable slope shall be one (1) percent.
    c. The maximum allowable slope for a concrete storm drainage pipe shall be 10
    percent and for a HDPE pipe shall be 14 percent. Greater slopes may be approved if
    installation is in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations. In cases where
    the slope is in excess of 10 percent, anchor collars may be required.
    d. A minimum pipe cover of 12 inches shall be required.

    STORM DRAINAGE SYSTEM DESIGN CRITERIA


    4. OUTLET LOCATION - CULVERTS AND PIPE SYSTEMS

    a. Outlet structures shall not be located closer to the building line.


    b. The invert elevation of a culvert or pipe outlet shall be no more than 0.5 meter above
    the elevation of the bottom of the receiving swale.

    5. DISCHARGE OF CONCENTRATED FLOWS.


    a. The discharge of concentrated flows of storm water into public roadways shall be
    avoided.

    6. CULVERTS
    a. Frequency Flood:
    The design storm for a culvert for all pavements and ground soil is using future
    development land use conditions.
    b. Velocity Limitations:
    Both minimum and maximum velocities should be considered when designing a
    culvert. The maximum velocity should be consistent with channel stability
    requirements at the culvert outlet. There is no specified maximum allowable
    velocity for reinforced concrete pipe, but outlet protection shall be provided where
    discharge velocities will cause erosion problems. Maximum slope using concrete
    pipe is 10% before pipe restraining methods must be taken. Maximum drop in a
    drainage structure is 1.0 meter
    .

    7. TAILWATER CONSIDERATIONS
    The hydraulic conditions downstream of the culvert site must be evaluated to determine
    a tailwater depth for a range of discharge. At times there may be a need for calculating
    backwater curves to establish the tailwater conditions. The following conditions must be
    considered:

    8. Storage
    If storage water tank is being assumed upstream of the culvert, consideration should be
    given to:
    • The total area of flooding.

    9. OPEN CHANNEL / SWALE


    a. Channels with bottom widths greater than 1.0 meter shall be designed with a
    minimum bottom cross slope of 6 to 1.

    b. Trapezoidal or parabolic cross sections are preferred.

    STORM DRAINAGE SYSTEM DESIGN CRITERIA


    c. Relocation of a stream channel is not permitted.
    d. All new proposed channels shall be designed to carry at least the fully developed 25-
    year storm with freeboard equal to 20% of the design flow depth.
    10. RATIONAL METHOD

    The following example will illustrate the hydrologic calculations needed for storm
    drain design using the rational formula shows a hypothetical storm drain system
    that will be used in this example. Following is a tabulation of the data needed to
    use the rational equation to calculate inlet flow rate for the seven inlets shown in the
    system layout.
