Publication: ICPTT 2014: Creating Infrastructure for a Sustainable World

Abstract

The concept of DBS is introduced to the water supply network planning stage. Based on natural conditions, and combined with the situation of the pipe network layout, the DBS methods and principles are discussed. According to the hydraulic model, the DBS planning programs - which have been assessed by EPANET 2.0 - satisfy the water security. Compared with the traditional planning programs, the implementation of DBS in the planning period can save construction costs. The paper attempts to:(1) enhance the water supply network planning and design standards, and (2) improve the water network management and operational levels.
