Table 3: Design flows at each discharge point into the KSP network
In addition to the three runs outlined in the Table, one extra connection points are proposed to serve a
security booth external to the main buildings but within the RAC plot. Flow from this booth is from one or two
sanitary fixtures only, and a minimal design flow can therefore be expected.
Flows from security booths outside the RAC plot (to be designed by others) have not been included and are
outside of the development boundary.
The connection points and their associated flows are shown in Figure 5: Sanitary Network Connections to KSP
Network above.
Figure 4: Sanitary network sizing diagram
2.4.4.Off-site discharge
Each RAC sanitary drainage run will discharge into the proposed network of gravity sewers serving the
King Salman Park development. RAC is served by sanitary sewers located in the highway along the
southern boundary of both Plots, as well as in the Boulevard separating Plots A and B.
Four connection points to the KSP network are proposed at manholes within the highway. Plot B flows
will discharge to the south and east.
For the purposes of calculating discharge flows, as requested by Omrania, a calculation based on
estimated potable water consumption has been carried out. This calculation takes estimated daily
demands per person, and assumes an 85% conversion to the sanitary system to calculate an average
daily flow to the sewer. A peaking factor is then applied to the flow using Babbitt’s formula.

3.5.3. RAC Firefighting Water Network Strategy
The design of the fire protection system of the buildings is developed in the MEP package.

The Civil discipline has designed the external hydrant network. The water ring to supply the hydrants is supplied
from a dedicated firefighting water storage tanks. NFPA 13E standard indicates that a separate source for
hydrant networks is required independent of the fire tank located in the basement.
These tanks are located adjacent to the irrigation tanks in plot A & B. The tank is supplied from the potable water
network.
Figure 10. General plan view – Firefighting water network
A hydrant next to each of the fire tanks has been placed at the request of the Civil Defence consultant.
The diameter of the hydrant supply ring is 250 mm. The supply branches to each hydrant are 200 mm in
diameter. The material of all pipes is ductile cast iron.
The filling of the hydrant network tanks is done from the KPS TTSE pipe through a 160 mm diameter SDR11
PN16 HDPE pipe.

3.6. Irrigation Network of Plot B
3.6.1.General Strategy
The irrigation network will be designed considering the most automated irrigation standards with the aim of
improving the water distribution, decreasing the water consumption, and minimizing the hand labour
requirements during the operation and maintenance (O&M).
Irrigation system will be automatically operated by electric solenoid valves and irrigation controllers ensuring
that only the predetermined volume of water is delivered to the plants according to their daily water
requirements.
The system will also allow for the possibility of manual hose irrigation in case emergency watering of the
landscaped areas is required.
Irrigation water will be conveyed to the plant by a network of underground main, sub main and lateral pipes and
delivered in controlled volumes by drip emitters and sprinklers.
Treated sewage effluent (TSE), supplied by NWC, will be the primary source of irrigation water.
According to the conclusion from meetings with KSP ‘s Consultants, two types of water will be supplied
depending on its quality. The one with the best quality (TTSE- Tertiary Treated Sewage Effluent) will have been
treated at a RO plant before being available to the RAC, while the one with less quality (STSE- Secondary
Treated Sewage Effluent) will arrive to the RAC plot after a lighter treatment. The following data has been
provided from Omrania:
§ TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) of STSE will be around 1500ppm
§ TDS of TTSE will be around 800ppm.
§ Available pressure at KSP network = 4 bar (40 m)
§ The parameters of maximum allowable contaminant levels in unrestricted irrigation waters, according
the below table, shall be considered. if need further low TDS, treatment should be provide at site.
In addition, the points of connection of the King Salman Park (KSP) irrigation network to the public network have
been coordinated with the NWC.

The following areas irrigated by each type of water quality have been considered:
§ Landscape area near to buildings and podium areas will be irrigated by TTSE.
§ Remote areas will be irrigated by STSE.
Therefore, four irrigation networks are proposed:

3.6.3.Secondary Irrigation Network and Irrigation Devices
The system will be composed by the minimum possible set of components, being some of these (but not
restricted to):
§ Irrigation connection to a main line through tapping saddles.
§ An irrigation controller. Two-wire decoders controller is proposed.
§ Isolation valves, solenoid valves, filters, pressure regulators.
§ Inline pressure compensated drippers, sprinklers, quick coupling valves, etc.
§ Other necessary components or accessories.
Considering the use of recycled water and/or treated sewage effluent (TSE), all new irrigation facilities, both
above grade or undergrounded be marked in purple colour, Pantone 512 or 522C.
All solenoid valves will be connected to an irrigation controller to be programmed to not open at the same time.
This way, solenoid valves will open at different times for each one of the sectors considered.
Considering a pressure regulating is installed at each solenoid valve, low density polyethylene (LDPE 40 PN6) for
lateral pipes is proposed.
Compression fittings and clamp saddle are proposed to be located at secondary networks, downstream of the
solenoid valves and once pressure is reduced.

§ Medium lawn areas: Considering size and geometry of the area, pop-up rotor (inlet size 1/2") for medium
lawn areas is proposed. Radius: 4.3 to 11.6 m. Flow range: 0.13 to 1.23 m3/h. A suitable selection of
nozzles will allow a uniform rainfall.
Figure 13: Drip irrigation installation schemes
The minimum components that will be necessary for a correct design are the following: manifold or supply line,
pressure compensated in-line drip emitters, air relief valve, manual flush valve, kit control hydro-zone (solenoid
valve, ball valve, filter, pressure regulator).
The pressure compensating system allows the flow to remain constant regardless of a pressure range (0.58 to
4.1 bar).
Drip tubes will be buried 100mm below finish level resulting in less evaporation and run-off losses.

will allow a uniform rainfall.

Downstream to each Master Valve, a Flow Sensor constantly monitors for low flow and excess flow conditions
caused by broken lines or heads. Problem flows are diagnosed to determine if the flow is caused by a problem
with a lateral line or the mainline and automatically quarantines and shuts down the problem area, and
continues to irrigate non-affected areas.
Master Valve & Flow Sensor shall be compatible with the proposed Irrigation Decoder Controller.
3.6.6.3. Solenoid Control Valves
Inside the irrigation area, each irrigation sector will be governed by 1“, 1.5" and 2” solenoid valves. Selected
solenoid valves should be compatible with decoders control systems. Solenoid valves will be equipped with
pressure regulators ensuring constant flow even in case of sudden pressure surge in mainline. A purple handle
cover should also be installed.
Solenoid valves will allow both automated and manual operation. Valves will be sized to provide sufficient
pressure differential for an adequate operation and must be fitted with an automatically closed system to use in
the event of power failure.

3.6.6.2. Master Valves and Flow Sensors
A master electric valve should be installed at each main line, downstream of the pump and connected at the
irrigation controller. It should allow the water be on the network as long as any irrigation zone valves are on, and
so it only should stop the flow when the entire irrigation system is off, at the end of the irrigation cycle.
The installation of a master valve will greatly reduce any water loss due to a leaky station valve.
These valves will open whenever any station is operating, and will close when no station valves are on duty,
shutting off the pressure in the main line. Figure 17: Solenoid valve proposed

may adjust each controller’s irrigation amounts automatically based on local climate conditions, and shall report
such adjustments in the browser to the user. The software shall also report controller shutdowns due to active
rain, freeze, wind or other sensors.
Two types of complementary sensors, wired to the terminals labeled "SEN" of each controller are proposed:
§ The Wind Sensor stops scheduled irrigation (only sprinkler irrigation sectors) when it detects wind speed
exceeding a preset rate by interrupting the power from the irrigation controller to the valves via a sensor
terminal with wired communication, then automatically resets the system when conditions are more
favorable.
§ The Solar Sync Sensor. It is a rain sensor, solar radiation and temperature in the same sensor:

Distance recommended (Decoder/Solenoids): 45 m.
Two programmers, one per plot, are required.

In addition, the Central Control System shall display the forecast weather for each controller several days in
advance, and shall enable automatic shutdowns of irrigation when forecasted temperature or chance of rainfall
exceeds a user-specified amount.
The Central Control System will allow the geoposition of each controller and will display the weather forecast
based on Web information, such as Weather Undreground or similar, which uses the climatic parameters of the
nearby weather stations, and will allow automatic irrigation stops when the forecast temperature or the
probability of rain exceed a user-specified amount.

design stage.
External KSP sitewide infrastructure is to be designed by the KSP consultant. The KSP consultant will be
responsible for developing the external surface water drainage and flood defence systems to manage all off-site
flows in major and minor events not to impact the RAC plot. While taking cognisance of the drainage and/or
conveyance systems required by the sitewide drainage and road network, the RAC design team shall not be
responsible for designing these elements beyond the development boundary.
4.2. Surface Water Drainage Strategy
The plot surface water management strategy is to collect and convey rainfall runoff in a controlled manner for
safe discharge to the site outfalls. Conveyance is proposed primarily through gravity at grade and sub-surface
systems, which utilizes sustainable urban drainage features for conveyance, together with the proposed
topography for retention and attenuation.
Within the structural envelope, discharge from roof and podium level collected by the building services network
to be conveyed within the basement Level 01 high-level MEP zone. Priority routing of surface water pipes within
the MEP zone is proposed to allow a gravity connection to the basement’s perimeter. The below-ground piped
networks link the building to the attenuation systems situated below ground, along in podium perimeter and plot
boundary before discharging in a controlled manner into the receiving KSP surface water systems.
Surface water runoff falling into basement open escalators, stairwells, and access tunnels will be collected and
conveyed to surface water pumping stations located within the basement located below the lowest structural

4.3. Existing Context
4.3.1.Existing Drainage Systems and Flood Risk
The existing drainage infrastructure located within the airbase is to be divested and removed. It is not anticipated
that the proposed RAC development will connect to any existing drainage systems. The KSP consultant,
Omrania, in conjunction with SALFO KSA, has developed the new sitewide drainage system as part of the KSP
master plan in which the RAC plot will discharge. The King Salman Park (KSP) – Execution of external works –
Surface water – Part A – Engineering Report `KSP-SAL-P1-DD-EW-REP-SW-01` prepared by SALFO KSA provides
details to the existing drainage regime and proposed flood management strategy. The KSP consultant is
responsible for developing all sitewide infrastructure and flood management systems located externally to the
RAC plot boundary.
Figure 3 shows the current expected 100-year event + 20% Climate Change (CC) flood map path, which
indicates flood risk to the existing site and external areas to the north and west. An existing major flood route is
similarly indicated flowing north to south within the current road and drainage networks, suggesting that the
existing site may be subject to external flood threat. The proposed KSP master plan will significantly develop the
existing topography and exceedance routes surrounding the RAC site. The KSP master plan is to mitigate future
flood risk to the RAC plot as part of the sitewide master plan.
It could be expected that in the major flood event, the receiving surface water system located to the southwest of
Plot B may surcharge, which could result in water ponding back along the proposed KSP roads. This could result
in external waters flowing into the Plot B basement access ramps. The KSP consultant is to consider the external
receiving networks' current and future outlet conditions to ensure all off-site flows in both major and minor
events are managed externally, not to impact the RAC plot.

The runoff coefficient (C) is defined by the type of surface over which the runoff will flow (typical values 0-1). The
existing Airbase site is relatively undeveloped, with much of the existing ground unchanged from its natural form.

Table 16: Riyadh IDF Data Set (Extracted from Riyadh City – Amanah - Storm Water Drainage Design Manual)
The appropriate time of concentration for the peak flow at any point in the catchment is the longest time of
flow to that point. However, in some situations, the peak flow may occur when only part of the upstream
catchment contributes. This typically occurs for partially developed watersheds. A smaller portion of a
catchment may have a shorter concentration time, which produces a greater peak discharge than if the
whole upstream catchment is being considered. An assessment of the time of concentration for each plot
as well as the partial area effect was conducted.

Table 18. Surface Water Network comparison
The most significant item achieved with this design has been to eliminate the flooded areas, although as can be
seen in the table above, for some catchments the discharge flow into KSP Network has been slightly increased
for the 1 in 100 return period.

This reduction in discharge flow and elimination of flooded areas have been possible due to flow restriction
structures designed. The orifice makes it possible to reduce the flows. Weir spill water have not been necessary,
since water elevation does not reach the surface in any catchment. The characteristics for these structures and
the manholes to install can be show in the following table:

§ TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) of STSE will be around 1500ppm

§ TDS of TTSE will be around 800ppm.

§ Available pressure at KSP network = 4 bar (40 m)

§ Remote areas will be irrigated by STSE.

Therefore, four irrigation networks are proposed:
