1. The flow to be managed by a channel is determined to be a minimum of 20 cubic feet per second. The channel is to be built from finished concrete and installed at a slope of 1-percent. a. Determine the size of a rectangular channel to handle the flow. b. Determine the size of a trapezoidal channel to handle the flow. Assume sideslopes of 3H:1V. c. What is the difference in flow capacity if the dimensions for the rectangular and trapezoidal channel are the same for bottom width and depth? d. What changes would you make to the trapezoidal channel such that the capacity was similar to that of the rectangular channel? ZOOM +
