Software Development For Regional Detention Pond Design Using Visual Basic 6.0 - Case Study On Sungai Air Salak Catchment

Nowadays, detention ponds are widely used in controlling flood due to its capacity in storing the additional surface runoff generated from development. The procedures for the estimation and routing of design hydrographs are presented in the Urban Stormwater Management Manual for Malaysia (MSMA...
