Venue

The Meeting Room, Mantra South Bank, 161 Grey Street South Bank QLD 4101

Course Outline

This one-day course provides an understanding of the processes involved in planning and designing a stormwater harvesting scheme, and an awareness of the factors that must be considered when designing the components of a stormwater harvesting scheme (i.e. catchment, diversion and raw water storage, treatment, treated water storage and distribution). A worked example will be used to illustrate and apply the planning and design process in the “Stormwater Harvesting Guidelines for South East Queensland” (Water by Design, in press).

This course is presented by David Hamlyn-Harris and Chris Tanner.

By the end of this course participants will:

  • An understanding of the range of skills and issues that apply to stormwater harvesting projects, including an awareness of water quality issues for recycled water.
  • Ability to apply the planning and design method for stormwater harvesting systems detailed in the Stormwater Harvesting Guidelines for South East Queensland (to be released early 2009).

Course content:

  • Planning for Stormwater Harvesting
  • Design – Catchment
  • Design – Diversion and Raw Water Storage
  • Catchments & Diversions Worked Example
  • Design – Treatment, Treated Water Storage & Distribution
  • Treatment, Storage & Distribution Worked Example

Who should attend?

This course is of particular relevance to engineers but is suited to a range of disciplines, including water managers, landscape architects, urban designers, local government engineers, planners and asset managers, who need to have an awareness of the processes and factors involved in planning and designing a stormwater harvesting scheme.  Experience in feasibility studies and conceptual design is recommended.
