Abstract

Despite the popularity of the permeable pavements in urban areas in recent years, a few empirical equations have been developed to estimate the time of concentration (Tc) on pervious surfaces, and almost none of them is evaluated over the permeable pavements. In this paper, we aim to investigate the effect of low impact development (LID) on Tc and develop a new equation for estimating overland flow Tc compatible with both permeable and impermeable pavements in small urban watersheds with a semi-arid climate. An experimental model was devised to determine the new equation. Synthetic rainfall (22–40 mm.h−1) was applied to a rectangular shaped (6 m × 1 m) test watershed with an adjustable longitudinal slope (0.5–8%) and zero lateral slope. Porous asphalt and permeable interlocking concrete paver (PICP) were employed as the permeable pavements. Then, to validate the obtained equation from experimental data, a field study was conducted over a 1-ha watershed during a Low intensity (
