Method used in determining size of trunk sewers, surface drainage channels, highway culverts and bridge waterways; attempts of group of Irish engineers, working more than 100 yr ago, to develop satisfactory method of predicting peak rate of runoff from small catchment; various steps from state of virtual ignorance to fully developed rational method can be clearly traced.
