Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A region experiences an intense rainfall of 120 mm, 50 mm of which results in runoff, with initial losses recorded at 15 mm. Calculate the W min-index and discuss the implications for urban design.

💡 Hint: Follow the formula step by step.

Question 2

Discuss how variations in soil type might affect the W min-index in designing stormwater systems in contrasting areas.

💡 Hint: Consider soil properties and their influence on water movement.
