The project in five facts.
Challenge, approach and results.
The diploma thesis analyses the stormwater drainage system using the example of the Poultry House in Beznovci. One of the main aspects of stormwater analysis is determining the quantity of precipitation that flows from surfaces called contributing areas. Contributing areas include all surfaces from which stormwater flows and are crucial in calculating the quantity of water that enters the sewerage system or drains into the environment.
Solution and Method
The diploma thesis analyses the stormwater drainage system using the example of the Poultry House in Beznovci. The main objective of the diploma thesis is to compare the actual sewerage system with the theoretical calculation based on professional literature for dimensioning, and to emphasise the importance of proper dimensioning for preventing floods during extreme downpours. The research includes an analysis of the constructed roof and grass surface drainage system and a comparison with the theoretical calculation of rainwater quantities.
The objectives include determining the minimum pipe diameter, verifying the impact of different surfaces on water quantity, and examining different types of pipes and drainage methods. The research methods used include descriptive and analytical approaches as well as analysis of project documentation and theoretical calculations. The work also presents leading companies in the field of stormwater drainage, with particular emphasis on the company Hauraton.
The diploma thesis focuses on analysing the impact of stormwater on urban areas. Stormwater represents a key factor in urban hydrology, as it affects the quality and quantity of water that flows across surfaces such as roofs, roads, and car parks. A key challenge in managing stormwater in urban environments is maintaining its quality and quantity to reduce negative impacts on the environment and human life.
Results
One of the main aspects of stormwater analysis is determining the quantity of precipitation that flows from surfaces called contributing areas. Contributing areas include all surfaces from which stormwater flows and are crucial in calculating the quantity of water that enters the sewerage system or drains into the environment. Rainfall intensity, surface geometry, and runoff and delay coefficients are important parameters in determining precipitation quantities.
Various methods and models based on hydrological principles are used to determine precipitation quantities. Among the most common methods are the Curve Number method, rational formula, and rainfall distribution method. These methods enable the estimation of precipitation quantities based on various parameters such as surface roughness, surface slope, and soil type.
In addition to determining precipitation quantities, it is also important to consider the impact of the urban environment on stormwater quality. In urban areas, stormwater can quickly become contaminated with substances such as oils, salts, heavy metals, and pesticides, which presents an additional challenge in stormwater management.
