Climate adaption and cloud burst for Run off Water

• Based on knowledge of changing climatic conditions to plan, design, calculate, construct, manage and maintain the storm water system and the sewage system.
• Design and asses ‘Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems’ including seepage systems
• Build, run and asses a smaller digital model for a drainage system
• Use of smaller digital drainage model for impact assessment of climate adaptation solutions and cloudburst solutions
• Plan a sewage rehabilitation and explain the strategies and methods for the sewage renovation
• Design and calculate weirs, storm water basins, pumpimg stations and present the structure and operation
• Plan the implementation of the construction works related to run off systems, reflect on conflicts and argue for solutions relating to the construction phase, including the ability-for-construction
• Be able to take an overall sustainability assessment on climate adaption and cloudburst solutions
• Reflect on and motivate chosen solutions
• Present and explain the group cooperation and for groups with international students with special focus on the interaction.

Many living areas experience problems with the capacity of the existing sewer. There is a need for new solutions for handling the run off water, and solutions that allow the water to a greater extent to run on the surface. Also recipients must be protected from pollution from the surface water

Overview of the subject of the course.
– Plans for adaption of climate change
– Rain water drainage, strategies and methods, on and under surface
– Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems
– Models for run off, over flow and consequences for recipients.
– Digital model for run off water, establishing, running and assessing the outcome
– Digital model for cloudburst
– Basins and weirs
– Rainwater, contaminating compounds, cleaning and outlet
– Rainwater systems monitoring, data treatment and analysis
– Rehabilitation of sewage systems, methods and criteria for renovation
– Planning and designing the sewage rehabilitation
– Planning the implementation of the civil works, ability-to-build, timeplan, stakeholders, appropriate methods
