Description
Building Drainage: An Integrated Design Guide by Kemi Adeyeye and John Griggs is a comprehensive resource for understanding the often-overlooked aspects of functional drainage design. By integrating drainage considerations into building design, architects and designers can create more sustainable, resilient, and user-friendly buildings. This book presents key principles and components of drainage design in an accessible manner, with many UK examples that can be applied internationally. It covers waste and foul water drainage systems, surface and rainwater drainage, and the benefits of integrated water management approaches. By reading this guide, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how functional drainage design interacts with building architecture and the local environment. With its focus on collaborative and integrative design, Building Drainage is an essential resource for building designers, architects, homeowners, and managers seeking to create more sustainable and resilient buildings.
