2023 Stormwater Design Competition

Sponsored by Contech Engineered Solutions
Registration will close on September 30, 2023.

About the Challenge

Stormwater regulations are increasingly calling for greater levelsof storage and treatment. In addition, land space in urban environments is increasingly becoming scarcer. This makes the job of civil engineers more complex, as they must meet local stormwater regulations within tight footprints while minimizing the cost to their clients. To accomplish this, many engineers incorporate manufactured treatment devices into their designs.

Contech’s Urban Stormwater Design Competition is a teamcompetition designed to mimic a real-world engineering project by designing a stormwater management system using various Stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) at a fictitious urban development to meet regulatory requirements.
