Introduction to Australian Rainfall & Runoff 2016 Urban Book workshop

Workshop by Peter Coombes and Steve Roso at 1 pm on Thursday 18 October 2018 at Reg Sparks Room, Sporting Car Club of SA, 51 King William Road, Unley

Join the authors and editors of Australian Rainfall and Runoff (ARR) Urban Book as they cover the philosophy and application of Australian Rainfall and Runoff (ARR) in urban catchments. The workshop will provide an overview of ARR and its application in urban areas, and will include practical application via examples, open discussion and answers to questions. Importantly, this workshop is an opportunity for practitioners and ARR editors to discuss the objectives, the application and challenges of the new ARR Urban Book.

The workshop will be delivered by Peter Coombes and Steve Roso, who have both delivered a diverse range of projects based on water resources, including urban design, stormwater management and urban hydrology. Between them, Peter and Steve have decades of experience delivering practical, on-ground solutions for stormwater management in the public and private realm.
