Flooding occurs on the site during periods of heavy rainfall. The following work was carried out in order to gain insight into the drainage problems and to indicate potential solutions:
- Height measurements on the site and adjoining plots
- Implementation of in-situ permeability measurements (k-value) of ground layers using double ring infiltrometer method
- Drafting of drainage proposal including water balance, cause analysis and formulated solutions to flooding, taking into account the future development of the site
