Permeable paving designs using the Design Pro software

Bowers Brothers offer a specialised software system designed for analysing and managing rainfall patterns and their impact on various aspects of infrastructure, in New Zealand. This software can be crucial for infrastructure planning, design, and maintenance, especially in regions with specific rainfall characteristics.

Key Features

Porosity and Permeability

This software takes into account the porosity (the volume of voids in a material) and permeability (the ability of a material to allow liquids to pass through) of various layers of the infrastructure, including the basecourse, subbase, and subgrade. This is important for understanding how water moves through these layers and how it affects the overall performance and durability of the infrastructure.

Underdrain Pipes

The software allows for the design and optimisation of under-drain systems by considering factors such as sizing (diameter of pipes), spacing (distance between pipes), and elevation (depth at which they are installed). Under-drain systems are used to manage excess water and prevent water-logging in roadways or other structures.

Pavement Layer Surface Infiltration Rate

This input refers to the rate at which water can penetrate the surface of the pavement layers. It’s essential for assessing how well the pavement can handle rainfall without causing flooding or damage.

Hydrologic Data

This software incorporates historical rainfall data and uses it to estimate rainfall characteristics with different return periods (ranging from 2 to 100 years). This helps in understanding the probability and severity of rainfall events over time.

Loads

It also considers the impact of rainfall in terms of loads, which refers to the amount of water runoff, soil erosion, or other factors that can affect the stability and performance of infrastructure.
