STORMWATER CONVEYANCE
CHANNEL

Definition

A permanent, designed waterway, shaped, sized, and lined with appropriate vegetation or
structural material used to safely convey stormwater runoff within or away from a
developing area.

Purpose

To provide for the conveyance of concentrated surface runoff water to a receiving channel
or system without damage from erosion.

Conditions Where Practice Applies

Generally applicable to man-made channels, including roadside ditches and intermittent

natural channels, that are constructed or are modified to accommodate flows generated by
land development. The implementation of this control should come only after a channel
adequacy analysis for capacity and velocity has been performed as per methods noted in
Chapter 5, Engineering Calculations. The measure should be installed and stabilized prior
to the introduction of post-development flows. This practice is not generally applicable to
continuous flowing natural streams. Major streams need full design considerations and
calculations. Provisions for protecting the banks of such streams are described in
VEGETATIVE STREAMBANK STABILIZATION, Std. & Spec. 3.22 and STRUCTURAL
STREAMBANK STABILIZATION, Std. & Spec. 3.23.

Planning Considerations

The design of a channel cross-section and lining is based primarily upon the volume and
velocity of flow expected in the channel. If conditions are appropriate, grass or riprap
channels are preferred over concrete. While concrete channels are efficient and easy to
maintain, they remove runoff so quickly that channel erosion and flooding often result
downstream. Grass or riprap channels reduce this problem by more closely duplicating a
natural system.

Besides the primary design considerations of capacity and velocity, a number of other
important factors should be taken into account when selecting a cross-section and lining.
These factors include land availability, compatibility with land use and surrounding
environment, safety, maintenance requirements, outlet conditions, and soil erodibility factor.
If the riprap design is chosen, filter fabric must be used to act as a separator and stabilizer
between the stone and the earth.

Cross-section design:

Vee-shaped ditches are generally used where the quantity of water to be handled is
relatively small, such as roadside ditches. A grass or sod lining will suffice where velocities
in the ditch are low. For steeper slopes where high velocities are encountered, a riprap,
concrete or bituminous concrete lining may be appropriate.

Parabolic channels are often used where the quantity of water to be handled is larger and
where space is available for a wide, shallow channel with low velocity flow. Riprap should
be used where higher velocities are expected and where some dissipation of energy
(velocity) is desired. Combinations of grass and riprap are also useful where there is a
continuous low flow in the channel.

Trapezoidal channels are often used where the quantity of water to be carried is large and
conditions require that it be carried at a relatively high velocity. Trapezoidal ditches are
generally lined with concrete or riprap.
1992 3.17

Plates 3.17-1 and 3.17-2 illustrate the various types of cross-sections and channel linings.

Outlet design:

Outlet conditions for all channels must be considered. This is particularly important for the
transition from a man-made lining, such as concrete and riprap, to a vegetated or non-
vegetated lining. Appropriate measures must be taken to dissipate the energy of the flow
to prevent scour of the receiving channel. (See OUTLET PROTECTION, Std. & Spec.
3.18).

Capacity

All channels shall be designed in a manner which satisfies MS #19 of the Virginia Erosion
and Sediment Control Regulations. If channel modifications are necessary, the capacity of
the channel must be sufficient to convey the 10-year frequency design storm (24-hour
duration) without overtopping the banks. If pre-development flooding problems exist, the
consequences of flooding are severe, or drainage systems which convey larger storms
converge with the channel in question, consideration should be given to increasing the
capacity beyond the 10-year frequency storm capacity.

Velocity

Channels should be designed so that the velocity of flow expected from a 2-year frequency
storm shall not exceed the permissible velocity for the type of lining used.

While concrete-lined channels can usually be smaller than grass-lined channels, the
increased velocity will produce more erosion and flooding downstream. Chapter 5 contains
information on engineering calculations for channel design. The VDOT Drainage Manual
may be referenced for additional information on channel and culvert design.

Grass-lined channels provide good protection against erosion, while they provide an
aesthetic setting for conveyance of runoff. However, the velocities that grass linings can
handle are much lower than those which can be withstood by riprap or concrete-lined
channels. For grass linings, the type of vegetation chosen shall be appropriate for the site
conditions: i.e., drainage tolerance, shade tolerance, maintenance requirements, etc. (See
PERMANENT SEEDING, Std. & Spec. 3.32 and SODDING, Std. & Spec. 3.33). Where
there will be a base flow in grass-lined channels, a stone center, a subsurface drain, or other
suitable means to handle the base flow shall be provided. Plate 3.17-2 shows typical cross-
sections for stone center channels. Refer to RIPRAP, Std. & Spec. 3.19 to choose the
correct stone size and for filter fabric specifications. Permissible velocities for grass-lined
channels are shown in Table 3.17-A.

Riprap-lined channels can be designed to withstand most flow velocities by choosing a stable
stone size. The procedures for selecting a stable stone size for channels and installation is
contained in Std. & Spec. 3.19, RIPRAP. All riprap must be installed with a filter fabric
or gravel (granular) underlining. Transition from a riprap lining to grass and earth linings
must be carefully designed to meet the allowable velocities of each type of lining.

Concrete-lined channels are not usually limited in the velocity they can carry; however, it
should be kept in mind that the flow velocity at the outlet of the paved section must not
exceed the permissible velocity of the receiving channel. See OUTLET PROTECTION,
Std. & Spec. 3.18. Concrete channels shall be at least 4 inches thick and meet all applicable
VDOT criteria found in its Road and Bridge Standards and Road and Bridge Specifications.

Depth

The design water surface elevation of a channel receiving water from diversions or other
tributary channels shall be equal to or less than the design water surface elevation of the
diversion or other tributary channel at the point of intersection.

The top width of parabolic and vee-shaped, grass-lined channels shall not exceed 30 feet,
and the bottom width of trapezoidal, grass-lined channels shall not exceed 15 feet unless
multiple or divided waterways, riprap center, or other means are provided to control
meandering of low flows.

Outlet

The outlets of all channels shall be protected from erosion (see OUTLET PROTECTION,
Std. & Spec. 3.18).

Calculations

1. Peak runoff shall be calculated in accordance with the guidelines contained in

Chapter 5.

2. Channel dimensions for roadside ditches and median channels shall be determined
in accordance with applicable design procedures outlined in the latest edition of the
VDOT Drainage Manual. Helpful design charts are also included in that publication
to aid in the design of concrete-lined channels for many cross-sectional shapes.

3. Channel dimensions for parabolic, grass-lined channels may be determined from the
tables in Appendix 3.19-a.

4. A general "trial and error" procedure for designing channels using Manning's
Equation and the Continuity Equation is contained in Chapter 5 of this handbook.

5. There are various computer programs available to assist a designer in performing

these calculations.

Construction Specifications

General

1. All trees, brush, stumps, roots, obstructions and other unsuitable material shall be
removed and disposed of properly.

2. The channel shall be excavated or shaped to the proper grade and cross-section.

3. Any fills shall be well compacted to prevent unequal settlement.

4. Any excess soil shall be removed and disposed of properly.

Grass-lined Channels

The method used to establish grass in the ditch or channel will depend upon the severity of
the conditions encountered. The methods available for grass establishment are set forth in
PERMANENT SEEDINGS, Std. & Spec. 3.32 and SODDING, Std. & Spec. 3.33.

Riprap-lined Channels

Riprap shall be installed in accordance with RIPRAP, Std. & Spec. 3.19.

Concrete-lined Channels

Concrete-lined channels must be constructed in accordance with all applicable VDOT

specifications. The following items highlight those specifications:

1. The subgrade should be moist at the time the concrete is poured.

2. Traverse joints for crack control should be provided at approximately 20-foot

intervals and when more than 45 minutes elapses between the times of consecutive
concrete placements. All sections should be at least 6 feet long. Crack control joints
may be formed by using a 1/8-inch thick removable template, by scoring or sawing
to a depth of at least 3/4 inch or by an approved "leave in"-type insert.

3. Expansion joints shall be installed every 100 feet.

Maintenance

Grass-lined Channels

During the initial establishment, grass-lined channels should be repaired immediately and
grass re-established if necessary. After grass has become established, the channel should
be checked periodically to determine if the grass is withstanding flow velocities without

III - 137
1992 3.17

damage. If the channel is to be mowed, it should be done in a manner that will not damage
the grass.

Riprap-lined Channels

Riprap-lined channels should be checked periodically to ensure that scour is not occurring
beneath fabric underlining of the riprap layer. The channel should also be checked to
determine that the stones are not dislodged by large flows.

Concrete-lined Channels

Concrete-lined channels should be checked periodically to ensure that there is no

undermining of the channel. Particular attention should be paid to the outlet of the
channel. If scour is occurring at the outlet, appropriate outlet protection shall be installed.
See OUTLET PROTECTION, Std. & Spec. 3.18.

Sediment Deposition

If the channel is below a high sediment-producing area, sediment should be trapped before
it enters the channel. Field experience has demonstrated that many newly constructed
conveyance channels become damaged and require costly repairs as a result of improper
upslope controls. If sediment is deposited in a grass-lined channel, it should be removed
promptly to prevent damage to the grass. Sediment deposited in riprap and concrete-lined
channels should be removed when it reduces the capacity of the channel.

APPENDIX 3.17-a

DESIGN OF PARABOLIC GRASS-LINED CHANNELS

The channel must be designed for capacity and erosion resistance. Capacity will be a
minimum when the grass is long and unmowed. This condition corresponds to V2 in Table
3.17-B. Erosion will be most likely to occur when the grass is short. This condition will
correspond to V1 in Table 3.17-B. A design based upon Table 3.17-B will result in a
channel which will have adequate capacity when the vegetation in the channel is long and
thick, which will remain stable when the vegetation is short or recently mowed, and which
will have adequate freeboard for the design flow.

Use the following procedure to design a grass-lined parabolic channel based upon Tables
3.17-A and 3.17-B:

1. Determine the required channel capacity, Q. (Peak rate of runoff for the
selected design storm).

2. Select an appropriate grass lining and note the maximum permissible velocity
(V1) from Table 3.17-A.

3. Choose the appropriate sheet of Table 3.17-B for the channel slope. Using
the maximum permissible velocity (V1) and the required flow capacity (Q),
read the top width (T) and the depth (D) for the correct parabolic section.

Example Problem

Design a parabolic waterway to be lined with Kentucky 31-Tall Fescue which will carry 50
cfs on a 3% slope.

Solution:

1. Q = 50 cfs (given)

2. V1 = 5 ft./sec. for Kentucky 31-Tall Fescue (from Table 3.17-A)

3. From sheet 9 of Table 3.17-B (for 3% slope): Read the top width (T) and
depth (D) for Q = 50 cfs and V1 = 5.0 fps
