VCA Engineers performed calculations for pipe sizing and cleaning velocity for 11 pipe sections for the East County Detention Center project. Manning's equation was used to calculate the flow velocity and rate for different pipe diameters, slopes, roughness coefficients, and flow depths to determine if the pipe sizes were adequate based on the accumulated discharge. Pipes SD5 through SD11 had a diameter of 0 inches resulting in errors in the calculations.
