Full description
Water conservation, water quality improvement, flood control and a healthy living environment are just some of the benefits that can be delivered by Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD). Despite these benefits, WSUD has not been widely adopted in South Australia. This project aimed to find out why South Australia has not experienced mainstream uptake of WSUD before addressing those barriers and identifying opportunities to encourage the implementation of sustainable urban design which is tailored to the state's specific needs and conditions. This collection includes the calibrated models produced by Task 3 of the project. These models were for the Frederick Street catchment (also known as Drain 18), located in Glengowrie, South Australia and the Paddocks catchment, located in Para Hills, South Australia. The models were developed in PCSWMM Version 5, available from CHI Software. However, the model is fully compatible with the USEPA Stormwater Management Model (SWMM) Version 5. Further information on the intent, assumptions and background data for the model is provided in the research report for the project. Please refer to related publication. This study was supported by The Goyder Institute for Water Research.
