Manage the impact of your project to preserve the water cycle<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The construction, transformation or renovation of buildings and infrastructure can waterproof soils <\/b>and interfere with the water cycle <\/b>. These modifications have significant consequences <\/b>: flooding, pollution of waterways, saturation of sanitation networks, etc.<\/p>\n

It is therefore essential to find adequate and nature-friendly solutions <\/b>to manage rainwater and runoff in order to limit the impacts of your project on the environment and infrastructure.<\/p>\n

To obtain planning <\/b>or environmental permits <\/b>for your project, it is recommended to provide a study <\/b>which proves that you comply with regional regulations <\/b>on stormwater and runoff management.<\/p>\n

As part of your permit request, Almadius is responsible for carrying out the rainwater and runoff management study <\/b>, with concrete solutions <\/b>adapted to the conditions of the project (residential, commercial or industrial) and outlet solutions <\/b>as well as , if necessary, water recovery .<\/b><\/p>\n

When possible, we favor an approach involving nature-based solutions <\/b>, involving soils, vegetation and the natural water cycle and providing multiple benefits, such as biodiversity, landscaping, the fight against urban heat islands, recreational aspects, etc.<\/p>\n

Data analysis<\/h3>\n

We analyze the impact <\/b>of your project on rainwater and runoff. To do this, we select the project rainfall, calculate the quantity<\/b> of waters<\/b> rainwater <\/b>(flows and volumes), we carry out tests<\/b> infiltration in situ <\/b>and calculate the speed<\/b> infiltration <\/b>.<\/p>\n

Sizing of works<\/h3>\n

Depending on the results, we justify the outlet <\/b>adapted to the situation and size<\/b> the works <\/b>which will make it possible to best manage rainwater and runoff, while respecting the legal obligations <\/b>in force and the environment <\/b>. We work from upstream to downstream <\/b>: limitation of waterproofing (choice of types of coating), transport of collected water, infiltration and retention works and consideration of discharge. Above all, we favor water management on the plot <\/b>, as close as possible to where the water falls.<\/p>\n

We take into account the risks linked to the stability <\/b>of buildings and, if necessary, size the structures also with the aim of treating runoff water <\/b>to avoid pollution of the receiving environment and ensure the sustainability of the retention and infiltration structures.<\/p>\n

Stormwater and runoff are rainwater <\/b>once it has hit roofs <\/b>or the surface of the ground <\/b>.<\/p>\n

Rainwater and runoff must be managed while respecting a hierarchy of outlets <\/b>. They must first be infiltrated <\/b>into the ground. If this is not possible, they will be redirected towards an artificial flow path or into a watercourse <\/b>. Finally, as a last resort, they will be evacuated into the drainage network <\/b>.<\/p>\n

Effective stormwater and runoff management helps prevent flooding , <\/b>reduces water pollution <\/b>, limits erosion<\/b> of<\/b> soil <\/b>, improves the quality of surface and groundwater <\/b>and avoids saturation of sanitation networks <\/b>. It also helps recharge aquifers <\/b>and maintain healthy aquatic ecosystems <\/b>.<\/p>\n

In many regions, such as Wallonia <\/b>and Brussels <\/b>, town planning standards require that construction projects integrate rainwater and runoff management solutions in order to prevent any negative impact on the environment and infrastructure.<\/p>\n
