Effective urban drainage to manage stormwater and control flooding depends on good engineering, especially when an environmentally sustainable approach is being applied. This new text focuses on green methods and modelling techniques. It covers the principles of hydrology and drainage, low-impact-development (LID) designs, computer modelling techniques, the evaluation of existing systems, and planning for both new development and urban renewal. It outlines design procedures using examples, spreadsheet models, photos, and real-world design examples.
Unlike other books, which...

The objective of street stormwater drainage design is to warrant efficient and safe traffic movements during the severe storm events. This book is dedicated to the latest developments in: (a) new concepts to analyze the urban catchment hydrology for storm runoff predictions, (b) innovative methods to estimate the street allowable capacities to convey storm runoff, and (c) useful computer models to simulate flow movements in inlets and sewers.
