Impact of Short Duration Intense Rainfall Events on Sanitary Sewer Network Performance

Impact of Short Duration Intense Rainfall Events on Sanitary Sewer Network Performance

Short duration intense rainfall causes an increase in rainfall derived infiltration and inflow (RDII) into aging sewer networks, which leads to Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs). This study presents a generalised framework for assessing and mitigating the impacts of intense rainfall on sanitary sewer...
