Abstract

Planning an efficient drainage facility in residential areas is necessary to drain run-off water on the surface. To minimize the potential for inundation that can cause flooding. This research aims to design an efficient drainage system in one of the residential areas in BSD and to analyze the ability of drainage channels using the EPA SWMM 5.1 application for a 10-year return period. The results of this study for secondary channels with a maximum discharge plan of 0.101 m3/s can use a U-Ditch with dimensions of 30 cm × 40 cm, while primary channels with a maximum discharge plan of 0.288 m3/s can use a U-Ditch with dimensions of 40 cm × 60 cm. In this analysis only taking into account rainwater run-off from household sewage is not taken into account. In the main channel, using retention pond only can reduce around 12% of maximum discharge, so the alternative of flood prevention for this residential area can be implemented by using bio pore holes, which reduce 27.85% of maximum discharge. From these analyses, it can be concluded that the drainage system design can already accommodate the flood discharge, and adding retention pond does not affect decreasing flood discharge on the main channel too much.
