What does water supply and sewage design include?
Water and sewage installations design is an important part of the overall engineering design of a building or site. It covers water supply, sewage, rainwater drainage, external networks and technical facilities that ensure reliable, safe and efficient operation.
IPA - Architecture and more develops water and sewage design solutions for residential, public, office, commercial, industrial and mixed-use buildings. The design is adapted to the building’s function, regulatory requirements, available infrastructure, technical constraints and future maintenance needs.
The scope may include internal water supply and sewage installations, external water and sewage networks, building connections, rainwater drainage systems, pumping stations, local wastewater treatment facilities, infiltration systems, boreholes and water wells.
Water and sewage installations need to be coordinated with the other engineering disciplines, including HVAC systems, electrical installations, fire safety, structural design and the architectural layout of the building. This coordination is especially important in complex investment projects, where the different systems must work efficiently and without conflicts.
The purpose of water and sewage installations design is to provide a technically correct, economically sound and long-term reliable solution. This gives the client a project that is aligned with the specific requirements of the site, the available infrastructure and the real conditions for construction and operation.
