It provides practical guidelines for developing a rainwater harvesting strategy, taking into account climate, public policies, environmental impact, and end uses. Case studies are included throughout, and a companion website houses worksheets, calculators, and other resources. Rainwater Harvesting is a valuable reference for architects, landscape architects, and site engineers"--Provided by publisher.Water harvestingSustainable buildingsDesign and constructionCisternsDesign and constructionSustainable architectureElectronic books.Water harvesting.Sustainable buildingsDesign and construction.CisternsDesign and construction.Sustainable architecture.628.1/42Novak Celeste Allen951209Giesen G.
