Manual Result vs MES Software Result (SUStoM)

3 min read

This is a OSD underground tank design result comparison between manual calculation with MES Software.

In this documentation, a comparison of results between manual calculation and MES Software result will be shown. This comparison will be based on SUStoM requirement which is now part of the submission requirement from DID Sarawak, whereby design engineer will be required to use SUStoM for their project submission. 

Comparison between OSD sizing of 30m x 30m x 1.5m RC detention storage tank  by manual calculation with MES Software.

Design Criteria #

Design Manual = MSMA 2nd Edition

Method = Simplified Method

Type of OSD = Below Ground

 
Figure 5.A1

Proposed Development #

Location = Terengganu – Kuala Terengganu

Region = Region 2 – East Coast

Project Area = 2.564 ha

Impervious Area = 1.923 ha

Pervious Area = 0.641 ha

Percentage of Impervious Area = 75%

Terrain = Steep

 
    From Client’s Manual Calc. Impervious = 75%

Permissible Site Discharge (PSD) #

Permissible Site Discharge (PSD)/ha = 

For area of 2.564 ha, PSD = 2.564 x 69.30 =

69.30 l/s/ha

177.69 l/s

Table 5A2 Permissible Site Discharge (PSD)/ha = 

For area of 2.564 ha, PSD = 2.564 x 69.30 =

69.30 l/s/ha

177.69 l/s

Site Storage Requirement (SSR) #

Site Storage Requirement (SSR)/ha = 

For area of 2.564 ha, SSR = 2.564 x 509.90 =

1307.38 m3

Table 5A2 Site Storage Requirement (SSR)/ha = 

For area of 2.564 ha, SSR = 2.564 x 509.90 =

1307.38 m3

  Site Storage Requirement (SSR) = 

(whichever is larger from Table 5A1 and 5A2)

1307.38 m3
    From Client’s Manual Calc. SSR = 1307.4m3
 

OSD Tank Sizing #

The required storage is 1307.38 m3

The dimension for the proposed below-ground storage tank:

V = Length × Width × Depth

= 30.00 × 30.00 × 1.60

= 1440.00 m3

 
  From Client’s Manual Calc. = 1350 m3

Inlet & Outlet Sizing #

Inlet Pipe

Inlet pipe diameter =

719 mm

Table 5A2 Inlet/ha = 

For area of 2.564 ha, Inlet Flow = 2.564 x 220.0/1000 =

220.00 1/s/ha

0.564m3/s

Table 5A4 Inlet Pipe diameter = 786 mm 
  Required Inlet Pipe diameter =

(whichever smaller from Table 5.A3 and 5.A4)

719 mm 
  Provide 1 nos. 720 mm diameter pipe 1 Nos. 720 mm
  Primary Outlet

Primary outlet discharge should not exceed the lesser PSD flow.

 
Table  5A3  Outlet pipe diameter = 327mm
Table 5A4 PSD = 177.6851/s = 

Outlet pipe diameter =

0.178 m3/s

418 mm

  Required Outlet Pipe diameter =

(whichever smaller from Table 5.A3 and 5.A4)

327 mm
  Provide 1 nos. 327 mm diameter pipe  1 Nos. 327mm
  Ao = No. of Orifice × π × (D/2)2

= 1 × π × (0.327/2)2

= 0.08398m2

 
  Ho = Depth – Diameter/2 – H

Ho = 1.6 – 0.327/2  – 0.900

Ho = 0.537 m

 
  Q = CdAo(2gHo)0.5

= 0.62 × 0.084(2 × 9.81 × 0.5365)0.5

= 0.172m3/s

= 168.93l/s

168.93l/s < 177..685/s

OK

 

  Secondary Outlet  
Table 5A3 Required overflow pipe diameter = 719 mm
  Ao = π × (D/2)2

= π × (0.719/2)2

= 0.406 m2

 
  Provide 1 nos. 720 mm diameter pipe 1 Nos. 720mm
  Ao = No. of Orifice × π × (D/2)2

= 2 × π × (0.720/2)2

= 0.40715m2
