Willet Science Center Rainfall Volume, Lab 1



    When determining the criteria of a great parking lot you need to know how much rainfall it can handle.  According to my calculations, Willet Science Center parking lot at Mercer University can hold up to 101,17794.91 gallons of rain after 2 inches of rainfall.  We need to calculate water volume when designing a parking lot because if it can't handle an average amount of rainfall then the parking lot will flood and cause and overflow of the places all around  it.
