Abstract

The drainage system of a part of a university campus was tapped using SWMM (Storm Water Management Model). Local drainage discharge capacity was studied under different design storm return period. Results show that flooding and overload at some junctions and in some conduits are doubled with the increase of design rain return period from one year to five year, which may deteriorate the traffic and road base.
