§ 914-8.008. Closed conduits—Outlet velocity.  


Latest version.
  • Where the outlet velocity from a closed conduit exceeds the maximum allowable velocity for the storm drainage facility receiving the flow, suitable protective works shall be constructed to dissipate the flow. At a minimum, the outlet end of the closed conduit shall be protected by a cutoff wall and the placement of loose riprap. The protective works shall be those specified by a licensed engineer and shall be based on enginering calculations of allowable flow velocities.
