Group 4 Project: : 

Group 4 Project: How could collected rainwater be used to irrigate the roof garden? Develop a proposition that could be implemented within a year By: Jenny Myrans, Ung Min Lee, Maxine Ryan, Emily Reels, Hannah Leonczek & Monique Attrux

Why did we choose this question? : 

Why did we choose this question? Sustainable – “Flagship 4 Sustainability” theme of group 4 Beneficial

Initial Ideas : 

Initial Ideas Bucket Running pipes Trays Existing Drainage pipes Sponges

Research Ideas : 

Research Ideas Tarp and barrel Table stand Poles in cement buckets Poles in buckets with sand and plaster.

Final Idea-Tarpaulin Channel : 

Final Idea-Tarpaulin Channel Why did we choose this design? Effective Waterproof Sustainable Removable

Rainfall Simulation : 

Rainfall Simulation How did the simulations help us? Miniature version Testing our final project

Final Product : 

Final Product What did we struggle with? Materials used Modifications made during production

Evaluation : 

Evaluation What did we do well? What could have we improved on? Was it sustainable? What system are we going to enforce to make this work?

Rainfall formula : 

Rainfall formula How much rainfall are we going to get? Estimation – What are the limits of this device? Rain caught (gallons) = (inches of rain) x0.6 x (portion of building footprint) Rain caught= 93 x 0.6* x 30 1674 Gallons of rain collected = 6336.78 liters of water Area of a Trapezoid = (1/2)(a+b)h = (0.5)(1.59+2.46)4.5 = 9.1125m2 Convert this to feet

Question For Next Year : 

Question For Next Year Using the device on the roof top garden, find a better way to distribute the rain water collected
