To convolute the 2-hr unit hydrograph with the effective storm pattern defined at intervals of 3 hr, it is necessary to change the unit
hydrograph duration to 3 hr. We use the S-hydrograph method to change the 2-hr UH to 3-hr UH.
To calculate the flood hydrograph, for 9 cm, it is 9 times; for 15 cm, it is 15 times (lagged 3 hr).
