What is construction runoff?
runoff caused by construction working
What is the difference between infiltration and runoff?
infiltration is different because when it happens the rain soaks underground it doesn't fall back into bodies of water like runoff does.
How do you you determine storm water runoff coefficient?
A simple coefficient chart works best. However, in the event you do not have access to such a chart; here is the general coefficient information that can be used to calculate Storm water Runoff: 1) Smooth, Impervious Surfaces, i.e., Tile, Roofing materials, Concrete walkways has a runoff coefficient of approximately 90% 2) Gravel surfaces and paved asphalt surfaces have a runoff coefficient of about 80% 3) Mitigated, engineered and or loose soils have a coefficient rating of 60% 4) Natural soils like that found in an undisturbed forest has a general coefficient rating of approximately 30% 5) Built landscape areas like "Green Roofs" should hold to and strive to reach the target of a 30% runoff coefficient rating. Use this calculation to calculate runoff: (CA) X (R) X (E) X (0.6) = Area runoff in gallons. Understanding the equation: (CA) = Catchment area in Sq. Ft. i.e., 1 Acre = 43,560 Sq.Ft. (R) = Rainfall expressed in inches (E)= efficiency expressed in decimal (0.6) = Gallons per Square feet for every inch of rain
Why was menlo park called the invention factory?
because Edison opened a resurch factory there
What is an abstract factory pattern?
An abstract factory pattern is a creational design pattern which decouples the object creation by providing a group of individual factories by defining an abstract factory class.
What is snowmelt runoff?
Runoff is water that flows over the ground surface. Snowmelt runoff is runoff from melting snow.
Glacial runoff and what else provides water to the large rivers of India?
Runoff from rain and runoff from melting snow (which is NOT the same as glacial runoff).
Is devastating an adjective noun or verb?
The word devastating is an adjective and a verb. Example uses:Adjective: He received devastating injuries in the accident.Verb: The runoff from the factory was devastating the nearby wetlands.
What are the two types of runoff?
Surface runoff and Subsurface runoff. Basically, above ground and below ground
Use runoff in a sentence?
New construction allowed runoff from hillsides which flooded basements in nearby homes.Runoff naturally seeks a path of least resistance.Continual runoff can undermine hills, leading to mudslides and ground failures.
What is construction runoff?
runoff caused by construction working
Does the causes of acid rain include runoff from cars?
acid rain comes from chemicals in the clouds, not runoff there is no "car runoff" runoff is from the slanted ground into water bodies
That water that moves across Earths surface after rainfall is called what?
runoff
What are the different stromwater runoff problems facing Arizona?
There are no stromwatrer runoff problems in Arizona, but there are stormwater runoff problems
Is surface runoff the best thing for the environment?
no surface runoff is not
What is the relationship for runoff abstractions and precipitation?
Runoff- Precipitation- Abstractions
How can you get a lot of runoff?
you cant get a runoff by occurring huge rainstorn
