Modular Rainwater Storage Design Planning in Support of the Urban Infrastructure Systems Program

Abstract

Technology to optimize the potential of rainwater that utilizes rainwater harvesting technology (PAH) cannot simply be accepted by the community, especially in urban areas. Urban areas have limited land to support rainwater storage which has large dimensions with the shape of a tube. Therefore, a modular form was developed that can help urban communities who do not have large lands to optimize the potential for rainwater that falls and is used as clean water to supply daily needs. These components are collected and classified according to urban infrastructure systems (UIS). The planned reservoir with dimensions that are more effective and easy to apply in various places is planned to have a maximum dimension of 1 meter high and 0.5 meters wide made of modular plastic. After going through the stages of analysis of the discharge that can be accommodated in the engineering of a modular rainwater reservoir, then proceed with the design process and provide clarity of designation examples. By utilizing the form with a capacity of 32 liters, this rainwater reservoir can be arranged and adjusted according to the designation of the people who want to use it.
