Extracted text: catchment areas are given in Table 2-1. (a) Using the given IDF curves and the Rational method, calculate the 50-years design peak flow (in cfs) at the catchment outlet. (b) A levee is to be designed to protect the area near to the catchment outlet using the estimated peak- flow. If the design life of the levee is 20 years, calculate the probability (%) of failure of the levee during its design life period.
