Abstract

The primary object of this study is to analyse rainfall data for working out design storm estimates for the design of urban drainage system. The probable rainfall has been statistically estimated by analysing the rainfall data recorded by 24 ordinary raingauge (ORG) stations and 3 self recording rain gauge (SRRG) stationi1 falling in and around the area enclosed by 0.50 latitude and 0.50 longitude around Lucknow. The various aspects studied are :

(a) Temporal distribution of rainstorms over the said area and

(b) Depth duration frequency analysis of rain storms for durations upto (6 hours anti for 2 and 5 years return periods.
