As part of the sustainable infrastructure design for the AAST Al Alamein Hospital, the latest drainage layout showcases a comprehensive stormwater collection network ensuring efficient rainwater management across the facility.
The system integrates rainwater pipes (RW.P), gully traps (GT), inspection chambers (IC), and main manholes (MHC) strategically distributed around key building zones. Stormwater collected from roofs and paved areas is directed through underground pipes sloped at 0.5% to maintain steady flow, eventually reaching the free discharge points positioned along the southern perimeter.
Additionally, storm drain connections (S.D.C) link the gully traps to the inspection chambers, facilitating maintenance and monitoring while minimizing the risk of surface flooding. This setup demonstrates AAST’s commitment to sustainable water management and climate-resilient building design.
