PUB ABC Waters design suite
Catchment Analysis (Rational Method)
Weighted runoff coefficient and peak runoff for a development catchment using the Rational Method, with a comparison against an allowable runoff coefficient for peak runoff control.
Singapore · PUB ABC Waters
Bioretention Basin (Rain Garden)
Treatment area, maximum infiltration (filtration) rate, extended detention storage, underdrain and perforation capacity, and overflow pit capacity for a bioretention basin.
Singapore · PUB ABC Waters
Vegetated Swale
Manning normal-depth solution for a trapezoidal vegetated swale: flow depth, hydraulic radius, velocity, Froude number, capacity, freeboard, erosion and safety checks, and treatment checks.
Singapore · PUB ABC Waters
Bioretention Swale
Combined conveyance (swale above the filter), filtration capacity of the bioretention trench, underdrain and perforation capacity, and overflow pit checks.
Singapore · PUB ABC Waters
Stormwater Detention (Peak Runoff Control)
Pre- and post-development peak runoff, allowable discharge, critical-duration storage (Modified Rational Method), orifice outlet sizing, level-pool storage routing and overflow weir check.
