Line 1: Line 1:
The Rational Unit Hydrograph has a time to peak equal to the time of concentration. Both the rising and receding limbs of the hydrograph have a duration equal to the time of concentration, and therefore the shape of the hydrograph is an isosceles triangle with a time base of ''2t<sub>c</sub>'' as shown below. This method is chosen by specifying the Modified Hydrograph Method using 1.0 for the recession limb coefficient and ''t<sub>c</sub>'' for the storm duration.
