  2. Drainage gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_gradient

    Drainage gradient (DG) is a term in road design, defined as the combined slope due to road surface cross slope (CS) and longitudinal slope (hilliness). Although the term may not be used, the concept is also used in roof design and landscape architecture. If the drainage gradient is too low, rain and melt water drainage will be insufficient.

  3. Two-stage drainage ditch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stage_drainage_ditch

    "Over a mile long reach [of the water channel] adds up to over 1.5 acre of land needed for the two stage drainage ditch design". This acreage of land may already be currently used for other purposes or contains infrastructure and subsurface gas or sewer lines. Thus, the larger the channel is, the more soil, and thus, increased funds required to ...

  4. Drainage equation - Wikipedia

    Theoretically, Hooghoudt's equation can also be used for sloping land. [8] The theory on drainage of sloping land is corroborated by the results of sand tank experiments. [9] In addition, the entrance resistance encountered by the water upon entering the drains can be accounted for. Definitions of drainage of sloping land and entrance resistance

  6. Drainage density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_density

    Drainage density relates to the storage and runoff terms. Drainage density relates to the efficiency by which water is carried over the landscape. Water is carried through channels much faster than over hillslopes, as saturated overland flow is slower due to being thinned out and obstructed by vegetation or pores in the ground. [7]

  7. Grading (earthworks) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grading_(earthworks)

    Section through railway track and foundation showing the sub-grade. Grading in civil engineering and landscape architectural construction is the work of ensuring a level base, or one with a specified slope, [1] for a construction work such as a foundation, the base course for a road or a railway, or landscape and garden improvements, or surface drainage.
