Hydrodesign and Geodesign: Harnessing Water for Sustainable Environments
Experience the synergy between Hydrodesign and Geodesign, exploring water-centric design processes for constructed and natural environments. Delve into topics such as flooding, water use, quality, environmental integrity, and community integration, led by a diverse team of design professionals and experts in civil engineering, architecture, geology, biology, and information technology.

Presentation Transcript
Hydrodesign Hydrodesign is an analogous process to Geodesign for design with water in the constructed and in the natural environment Flooding Water use Water quality Environmental integrity People of the Place Design Professionals: Civil Engineers Architects Earth and Natural Sciences: Geology, Biology Information Technology
Questions Representation 1. How should the study area be described? 2. How does the study area operate? 3. Is the current study area working well? 4. How might the study area be altered? 5. What differences would the changes cause? 6. How should the study area be changed? Process Evaluation Change Impact Decision
Design Project Needs a team of three people You are free to form your own team and to give it a name Half the students in this class are in CE 374K Hydrology so get somebody from this class in your group Think about the design project that you would like to do I need your group membership and name by Thursday 27 February I will make up groups for students unassigned to groups by 27 February We will discuss the Design Project Development on Thursday Mar 6. Your group will then develop a project proposal
Evolution of Hydraulic Design Stormwater runoff disposal Get the water off the site as quickly and efficiently possible Stormwater detention Slow down the stormwater so that peak flow after development is not more than before Water Quality Control Retain and filter water on site so that bacteria are reduced and water quality improves Low Impact Development Dispersed onsite infiltration, filtration and retention schemes
