Description

Millions of slum residents from over the world suffer frequent flooding of their streets and homes, resulting in problems like property damage, loss of work and time, and health problems. Based on two-and-a-half years fieldwork in Indore, this manual has been written to help engineers, aid and agency workers understand drainage problems more clearly in the developing world, in order to find practical solutions. The text focuses on three main problems prevalent in low-income urban areas in developing countries: what is drainage performance and what happens when it floods?; how can we evaluate a drainage system to assess how best to improve its performance; and what are the effects of solids in drains upon performance?
