Join us for this national webinar on Trench drainage and integrated surface water management presented by ACO.  This webinar will feature a case study of Comely Banks Sports Pavilion by Flynn Hart, Director at Pollen Studios.  

About the case study  - The Comely Banks Reserve Sports Pavillion

The Comely Banks Pavilion is suited in the Cardinia Shire, south-east of Melbourne.  The facilities serve the sport and recreation needs of the community.  The project was funded through the Victorian Government's Growing Suburbs Fund and Cardinia Shire Council.  Hear from Pollen Studio about their work on the project and working with other consultants as part of the process. Flynn will speak through how they approached the project and explore possible alternatives for this project. 

Trench Drainage, Presented by Greg Facey, ACO

Greg Facey from ACO will explore traditional and modern systems that deal with the removal of surface water and examine why design life costs, safety, and efficiency are best used as key performance indicators.

This presentation gives clear and structured guidelines on early planning decisions and selection for effective stormwater runoff removal whilst addressing key client and stakeholder considerations such as

  • Innovations vs traditional designs for surface water management
  • Design principles, choice of systems and regulatory standards
  • Slot criteria relating to wheelchair and walking cane safety
  • Slip resistance, loading and durability, access for maintenance
