UD Rainwater Harvest Designs

By Luci Beachdell | Tuesday, February 2, 2010, 07:30 PM

Last semester, a class of first-year Civil Engineering students from the University of Dayton designed 6 different rainwater harvesting systems. Their cost for materials was $250 or less. Here are their final designs - if anyone would like further information, please contact me at lucille.beachdell@metroparks.org.

Thank you! to Kenya Crosson, PhD, UD Assistant Professor, and to the teams of students who designed these rainwater collection systems! I hope to build and test some of these designs this year.
