To find out the design storm we need to know the maximum rainfall of a particular, , duration over a particular area. This is found from Max. DAD curve., , Due to various storms of a particular duration (i.e. say various storms of 24 hr duration) depth area curve is, found. Then area is plotted w.r. to Max depth of rainfall corresponding £9 arious storms of 24 hr duration., This is max DAD curve:, , , , f rainfall of various days), , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , When the above maximum depth of rainfa wt area we get maximum DAD curve.
