Port Stormwater sewer design from an asset management perspective
Port Stormwater sewer design from an asset management perspective
Samenvatting
The following report gives a full description of the Bachelor Civil Engineering graduation project. The graduation is done in North Sea Port. The company requires a new design for the rainwater sewer system in part of the Vlissingen-Oost harbor. The project is done in parallel with that of a company contracted to solve the same problem, the difference being the approach. The main idea of the following thesis is to provide the client with the most efficient design which includes consideration for asset management, functional requirements, and future prospects of the design.
Although the design of the system must be done to consider the existing businesses, it is not enough to look at the problem from the present point of view only. Consideration should be made for the future expansion of the businesses in the area and the need for more drainage.
Based on the need for such an effective design, three alternatives are detailed that provide a range of functionality and preparedness for the future. Then they are scored based on a set of criteria made from the stakeholder requirements and the tenets of asset management. After that, the winning alternative is parametrically developed as a final design of the current thesis project. Stormwater studio is used for the design development and parametric load, nodes, capacities, and cross-sections for the design. Moreover, it is used, and profile drawings are obtained as one of the final products of the project. The conclusion shows that the final design fulfills the consideration of all the requirements for the following research and satisfies the minimum demands of the preliminary hydrological design.
