Learn how to design stormwater (WSUD) assets for water quality improvement, flow reduction and stormwater harvesting.
This course provides practical guidance critical to the design and review of street-scale WSUD assets to manage stormwater pollution and flow volumes, with a strong focus on emerging asset classes (e.g., permeable pavements, passively irrigated trees, ephemeral wetlands, etc). As such, the course covers both lot scale / streetscape and greenfield systems, as well as design considerations for stormwater harvesting schemes.
The session will reference the industry resources such as the Emerging Assets for Stormwater Flow Management: State of Knowledge, Melbourne Water MUSIC Guidelines and others. The session showcases real-world examples of good versus poor design. It also features insights from recent research findings.
Practical class exercises give participants a chance to apply best practice design and test learning in a small group context. Participants will be encouraged to share knowledge and experience with peers throughout the session.
