STORM WATER MANAGEMENT FOR TOWN HOUSES SOUTH REALISTIC CONSTRAINTS, ENGINEERING STANDARDS AND MODERN ENGINEERING TOOLS Elizabeth Lafferty (PM) Kelly Hommen Charles Stewart Michael Murphy Advisors: Dr. Horst and Dr. Krstic

Constraints and Engineering Standards  Economic  Environmental  Sustainability  Manufacturability  Ethical  Health & Safety  Standards  Modern Engineering Tools

Economic  All construction must be paid for by The College of New Jersey  Final design chosen based on cost analysis

Environmental  Potential destruction of animal habitats during construction  Increase of storm water draining into the lake

Sustainability  Solutions will be designed to withstand future storms  Solutions will be implemented to require minimal maintenance  Pipe instillation and design  Drain repairs

Manufacturability  All designs must be able to be produced and installed by any construction company  Construction should not inhibit the lives of students living within the townhouses

Ethical  Use of material that is not detrimental to the environment  Acquire appropriate permits for construction  Follow laws provided for drainage and water discharge

Health & Safet y  Construction workers must follow OSHA guidelines  Underground utility lines must be marker prior to digging.  Percolation Test  Groundwater Monitoring Well

Standards  Moisture Content, Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit  ASTM D-2216  Sieve Analysis  ASTM C  NJBMP Manual  Well construction, Percolation test

Modern Engineering Tools  HEC-HMS  AutoCad  USDA Web Soil Survey  NJ DEP iMap
