• One of the earliest high rise apartment blocks in South Bangalore.
• The 5 blocks named after flowers:
Cassia
Mayflower
Magnolia
Laburnum
Jacaranda

• All 16 storey-tall with roof catchment of 2200 sq.m except for Laburnum.
• Today’s presentation is about :

Rainwater Disposal – Rainwater Disposal – Pre RWHPre RWH
• Roof top water from 15th/16th floor.
• Down pipes 27 nos. led down chutes in the building center to Basement.
• Down pipes connected to 7 exit pipes.
• Rainwater flows out to Municipal drain/STP/open wells.

The ChallengeThe Challenge• Topography of Cassia not conducive for
direct flow to ground sumps.
• Necessitates pumping from Basement level.
• Transit storage became mandatory.
• Rains – unpredictable in timing, duration and intensity.
• Manual monitoring/Control/Action undependable.

The Solution - The Solution - Fully automatized systemFully automatized system
PHASE I:
Programmable logic control to start/stop pumping depending upon flow/storage status.

The Solution - The Solution - Fully automatized systemFully automatized system
PHASE II:
Action to meet the following ‘what if’ emergencies:• Filter block leading to Column Water Build-up.• Basement tanks full & ground sumps full and
rain continues.

REMEDIES:
• Bypass valves made to change flow status.• Manual intervention for the above ruled out.• Self-operated mechanism activated – How?

INNOVATIVE HYDRAULIC ACTIVATION SYSTEM:
• No electric power is required, hence no dependence on power supply.
• Water pressure available from roof top tank invoked.

MECHANISM EMPLOYED:
A) Incase of tank overflow,
a float valve moves up &
opens water flow from roof top.
This action hydraulically moves
the bypass valves appropriately.

B) Incase of a Filter block,
hydrostatic pressure builds up,
activating a spring-loaded lever,
thus opening the inlet valve;
Pressure activates hydraulically
to move bypass valves to
appropriate position.

Rainwater UtilizationRainwater Utilization
• BWSSB stipulates 70-75% water utilization from roof top catchment.
• Open paved catchment – no stipulation.
