In some sections, the water was simply stagnant in the pipe \u2013 causing backflow and water accumulating on the surface.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2035\" data-end=\"2256\">During the route search, it was discovered that during construction, one of the <strong data-start=\"2105\" data-end=\"2131\">gutter branch<\/strong> It was mistakenly connected to the drain pipe instead of the main collector, so the rainwater could not drain away, but flowed back under the paving stones.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2258\" data-end=\"2360\">These seemingly minor errors together <strong data-start=\"2296\" data-end=\"2349\">serious water accumulation and structural damage<\/strong> caused.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2367\" data-end=\"2398\">The redesign process<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2400\" data-end=\"2640\">After we have accurately identified the errors, detailed <strong data-start=\"2447\" data-end=\"2464\">redesign<\/strong> We designed a drainage system for the yard. The goal was to create a solution that ensures rapid drainage, but also takes into account the characteristics of the soil.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2642\" data-end=\"2684\">The new plan included three main steps:<\/p>\n<ol data-start=\"2686\" data-end=\"3312\">\n<li data-start=\"2686\" data-end=\"2897\">\n<p data-start=\"2689\" data-end=\"2897\"><strong data-start=\"2689\" data-end=\"2717\">To restore the slope:<\/strong><br data-start=\"2717\" data-end=\"2720\" \/>The affected sections were re-laid, ensuring a fall of at least 1.5\u20132% towards the main collector. This guaranteed that the water could drain away by gravity, without obstruction.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2899\" data-end=\"3097\">\n<p data-start=\"2902\" data-end=\"3097\"><strong data-start=\"2902\" data-end=\"2935\">Creating a new connection point:<\/strong><br data-start=\"2935\" data-end=\"2938\" \/>We provided the gutters with new, direct connections to the main water catchment.
