    This document discusses theories related to drainage and flooding. It explains that soil can absorb water into its pores until it reaches saturation, and excess water will pool on the surface and potentially cause flooding. It also notes that urban drainage systems may become inefficient if more water reaches inlets than they were designed to drain. Finally, it outlines some of the negative impacts of poor drainage and flooding, such as property damage, health issues, and people being displaced from their homes.

    Theoretical Framework

    This study supports and uses theories and information in which this
    research is base. It allows this research to more understandable and
    categorical. The researcher decided to use this theories and approach
    that will help in making the objectives and statement of the problem
    obsolete. Likewise this given information may help to establish the
    methodologies in this study.
    During rain or irrigation, the fields become wet. The water
    infiltrates into the soil and is stored in its pores. When all the pores are
    filled with water, the soil is said to be saturated and no more water can
    be absorbed; when rain or irrigation continues, pools may form on the
    soil

    surface

    which

    causes

    flood

    (http://support.optisurface.com/knowledgebase/articles/192123-5surface-drainage-theory). Urban drainage systems may prove locally


    inefficient as a consequence of an unexpected amount of water failing
    to reach a certain number of inlets in the network. Local failures are
    indeed observed as a consequence of precipitation events with even
    lower intensities than the design rainfall, when inlets are requested to
    drain contributing areas that are larger than the design ones
    (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/hyp.5648/abstract).

    Poor drainage can lead to flooding, resulting in property loss, and


    people may even be forced to move to escape floodwaters. Flooding
    may also damage water supply infrastructure and contaminate
    domestic water sources. This contributes significantly to the spread of
    diseases such as typhoid and cholera, and may increase the likelihood
    of contracting worm infections from soil contaminated by faeces.
