SPR-4430: Multiple Water Course Joint Probability Analysis Procedure Development for Indiana Specific Watersheds

Design of hydraulic structures near a stream confluence requires the use of joint probability of flow exceedances. This project will develop joint probabilities based on Indiana streams for multiple probabilities including 1%, 2%, 4% and 10%. This project will deliver a report detailing the scope of the study, methodology and results related to development of joint probabilities and a recommended procedure on how the newly developed joint probabilities can be implemented in Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) projects.
