Abstract: The project began with an assessment of the current infrastructure at WPI, highlighting the most problematic areas on campus. Locations were identified through evaluations made during storms and excess runoff was observed during and after storms, revealing specific vulnerable areas on campus. Additionally, the team researched various methods of Green Infrastructure and created designs most effective for these problematic areas.
