A 50 –acre watershed located near El Paso has the following land uses: 30 acres poor condition range (Soil Group B), 15 acres residential (3 acre lots, Soil Group B), and 5 acres business (85% impervious, Soil Group C). The watershed has a maximum flow length of 2000 feet on a 3% slope. No significant water ponding occurs within the watershed. Soils are dry at the start of the storm events.

Required:
a. What is the peak runoff estimate using the Rational Method.
b. What is the peak runoff estimate using the SCS TR-55 method.
c. Which method do you choose to estimate peak runoff and why did you choose that method.
d. What is the peak runoff for the 100-year, 24-hour storm?

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
