Summary/Abstract: Knowing the maximum flow rates, as well as the maximum volumes of thefloods with different probabilities is necessary in dimensioning and exploitation ofhydrotehnical constructions, the safety and efficiency of the works depending greatly on thedata accuracy. In the case where measurement data existsin cross-sectionslocation of works,we rely on bidimensional probabilities or correlations between hydrological units. With thatin mind, the methodology and a computation example highlighting the two hydrologicalelements (maximum flow rate and maximum volume) of floods for the desired probabilitiesare presented in the paper.
