Title Rural Domestic Water System Peak Flows and Design Innovations, Optimal Water Planning Series
Creator Hughes, Trevor C. Kono, Yukio Canfield, Ronald
Description Planning engineers commonly use generous factors of safety for peak flow estimates in urban water supply systems both as a hedge against unforeseen growth and because economies of scale result in relatively low user costs even with such reserve capacity. Transplanting of such design criteria into the rural setting, however, simply does not work. The low density portions of rural domestic systems require very realistic design criteria or the construction costs become infeasible for the small...
