Storm Water Management Plan for the PUPR & Guidelines for LEED certification of the PUPR Library

Abstract

This project consist in the construction of a stormwater management plan for the PUPR. The needed storage volume was obtained, using calculation method. The proposed technology for mitigation was StormTech, which are subsurface chambers of high capacity. Using computer programs, a location and design layout was constructed. The construction of this project will control the flooding in the campus in major rain events. The second part of the project was to set base guidelines so in the future the PUPR can achieve a LEED certification for the Library building. Using the LEED v4 O+M, a guidance was constructed for the pre requisites and potential credits. This guide will help forthcoming submittal to the USGBC.
