drainage systems. The best way to avoid the majority of future problems is to pay greater attention to them during the planning, design and implementation phase.
To design an effective urban drainage and storm water management system, knowledge of the technical design principles for each component of the system is required. After giving a brief introduction this Training Programme will focus on the practical application of sound planning and design practices as well as specific storm water management techniques. This three days workshop is aimed at those who want to hone their skills in storm water drainage systems design & storm water management. Participants will learn to develop a plan to mitigate the environmental impact caused by urban development & the management of storm water.
The uniqueness of this course is its emphasis on hands-on exercises for designing the various components of drainage and storm water management systems.
Storm water drainage systems include surface drainage systems, underground drainage systems, storm water management facilities, and erosion and sediment control systems. The design of the storm water drainage system and management addresses several elements including storm water management plan, temporary and permanent erosion and sediment control practices, site grading, utilization of overland flow and natural site features, as well as the construction of culverts, ditches, and other drainage structures.
