Area velocity Method

The document outlines the calculation of maximum flood discharge using the area velocity method based on the high flood level (HFL) of 100.450 m. It provides detailed data on chainage levels, depths, and areas, leading to a calculated discharge of 10.12 Cumecs (357.66 Cusecs). The calculations utilize the area velocity formula, incorporating parameters such as hydraulic radius and slope.
