Summary: | Stormwater Management Manual (MASMA) has been introduced in Malaysia to control the stormwater and thus to prevent flash flood from occurring at downstream. Flash flood can cause damage to cities which full with impervious surfaces. Community detention pond is one of the facilities that is used to prevent flash flood from occurring by store the stormwater in the pond and discharge it slowly at the outlet. In this study, spreadsheet is developed to rout the storm runoff using Goodrich Method. The result shows that the outflow from the detention pond is lower from the inflow, thus prove that the community detention pond is effective in minimizing the peak flow. |
