Abstract:This project report, in six volumes, documents a system of computer programs oriented to the design of drainage components: culverts, storm drains, and open channels. The system includes an input generator to estimate design rain, hyetographs, design flow and hydrographs at user selected return periods. Programs are facilitated with semi-expert system shells that generate input data for engineering programs. All system elements fit into an open architecture that utilizes personal computers having hard disks, math coprocessors and operate within an MS-DOS environment. This volume, Volume V, is a user supplement to existing, more detailed documentation for the Water-Surface Profile Computation Model Microcomputer Program (WSPRO); this code has been designed to provide a water-surface profile for six major types of flow situations: 1) unconstricted flow, 2) single-opening bridge, 3) bridge opening(s) with spur dikes, 4) single-opening embankment overflow, 5) multiple alternatives for a single job, and 6) multiple openings. WSPRO was originally developed by the United States Geologic Survey (USGS) for the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
