→To calculate the required storage reservoir depth where the area is fixed or constrained (1D drainage)
On densely developed sites, the surface area of the practice may be constrained. In such cases the required storage reservoir depth, d<sub>r</sub> of the bioretention cell or infiltration trench can be calculated based on available surface area, A<sub>p</sub>:

Note that in most cases the results of this calculation will be very similar to those from the equation below assuming 3 dimensional drainage.
