    (UMT.Lahore, 2019) ZEESHAN TALIB; JAWAD HASSAN; ASHFAQ ALI
    There is severe problem of rain water inundation at UMT campus. Excessive water stands at low spots causing difficulty in movement, soil erosion and deteriorate of surface of land. A storm water disposal system for UMT campus was conceived, planned and designed. The reason of these problems is that campus drain system has been designed only for sewage. In case of precipitation, existing sewer system is not adequate. Due to this reason, precipitation runoff is not drained properly and it flows toward low lying spots and stay in the form of depression pound. A disposal system considering runoff from rain for 10 years return period has been designed. Rational method was used to estimate the storm water runoff which was found as 30 ft3/s. The capacity of reservoir to store water for one hour is 3.14×106 litters. This volume of water can be pumped in 15.42 hours if the capacity of pump is 2 ft3/s.
