摘要：Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) is the maximum precipitation depth for specific region or station within a certain time. The main purpose of PMP estimation is calculate the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). The PMF is considered necessary for design and manage the hydraulic structures. PMP can be estimate using two methods, either using a physical method or by using statistical method. In this study, statistical approach was used to estimate the PMP for Temengor catchment in Perak state, Malaysia. Extreme value type-1 distribution (EV1) is adopted to estimate the extreme rainfall and Hershfeid method was used to estimate PMP value. Also, intensity duration curve (IDC) was derived for 1, 2 and 3 days storm duration with return period 5, 10, 50, 100, 500 years. The results showed that the values of PMP for 1000 return period are 222.361mm, 311.847mm and 348.307mm for 1, 2 and 3 days respectively.
