Definitions

  • the invention relates to a retention arrangement for retaining precipitation water, in particular in the event of heavy rain events in urban, highly densely built-up areas.
  • the present invention relates to a building, such as a residential or commercial building, an industrial hall, a noise barrier, a bridge or the like, with at least one retention arrangement connected to the building or freestanding.
  • the technical field of application of the invention is in structural engineering, especially in the area of facade surfaces of buildings, the term "building” in the context of the invention is to be interpreted broadly and the term is understood in particular as residential or commercial buildings, industrial halls, soundproof walls, bridges or the like .
  • Measures to retain rainwater and protect against flooding are moving into the focus of architecture, urban planning and builders, as extreme events - such as heavy rain and flooding - occur more frequently as a result of climate change.
  • the cities in particular are of central importance here. Due to increasing urbanization, these are characterized by a high structural density and a high degree of sealing. The high degree of sealing, the low seepage potential and increasing soil compaction amplify the consequences of heavy rain events.
  • Green roofs and retention roofs are increasingly being used in urban areas, with the latter being primarily designed to retain rainwater.
  • the depth of the substrate and the shape of the drainage layer of retention roofs are influential factors in the water retention to be achieved. In this way, the water can be diverted over long distances and the outflow can be delayed.
  • Many existing buildings are not suitable for a retention roof due to static requirements, because the total weight increases with increasing water storage capacity.
  • the total weight of extensive green roofs is around 50 to 70 kg/m 2 , intensive green roof gardens can reach over 1,000 kg/m 2 .
  • green roofs are a building block of an optimized urban rainwater management system in terms of retention capacity, but they can reach their limits, since the percentage of rain retention decreases with increasing precipitation intensity and the additional precipitation is then passed on directly and without delay.
  • Such measures usually require complex and expensive construction measures. Larger areas have to be redesigned and roads have to be included. The scope for action usually relates to public areas, private land can hardly be integrated into the planning of the measures.
  • Such vertical gardens are usually only installed in the form of individual projects as art or advertising objects.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a retention arrangement and a structure, in particular a building, with such a retention arrangement which, in a structurally simple manner and at low cost, can contribute to mitigating the consequences of heavy rain events through water absorption and storage, whereby, preferably, the retention arrangement should offer the potential for economical mass production and should be able to be used in different structural engineering areas.
  • the retention structure should be usable and suitable in particular for an industrial implementation of the use of facade surfaces of buildings and other structures for rainwater retention. It should preferably be possible to absorb and store water without additional equipment, surrounding seals or enclosures.
  • the retention arrangement should be designed and usable not only for water intake and storage, but also for water collection and/or water drainage.
  • the retention arrangement according to the invention has a porous and absorbent and/or swellable water storage material, wherein the retention arrangement forms or is designed as a free-standing, essentially vertical retention structure, for example in the manner of a (sculptural) water tower, in particular with a ratio of enveloping surface area to volume of less than 5.0, preferably less than 2.5.
  • the retention arrangement is connected to a building arrangement for draining rainwater from at least one roof and/or facade surface of the building arrangement to the retention arrangement and for at least temporarily storing drained rainwater in the retention arrangement.
  • the retention arrangement can form a retention facade of the building, from the roof and/or facade surface of which rainwater is conducted to the retention arrangement.
  • the retention arrangement it is also possible for the retention arrangement to receive precipitation water from other neighboring structures, such as residential or commercial buildings, industrial halls, noise barriers or bridges or the like, via a corresponding line routing.
  • the retention arrangement is fluidically connected to the building arrangement, in particular via corresponding water-carrying inlet and/or outlet lines.
  • the retention arrangement is set up and designed to feed in rainwater.

  • a control and/or regulation device can be provided for the controlled and/or regulated automatic change in the amount of water that is fed to the retention arrangement in the event of heavy rain events.
  • the retention arrangement according to the invention is thus to be distinguished from such vertical arrangements with water-storing material, such as green walls, in which incidental storage of rainwater can occur in the arrangement, but these arrangements primarily serve other purposes, such as greening buildings.
  • the retention arrangement according to the invention has at least one technical device which is designed for the directed and/or forced and/or controlled and/or regulated supply of precipitation water to and/or into the retention arrangement.
  • the retention arrangement is designed and set up for water absorption and water storage of a certain minimum amount of water. Since the invention relates to the retention of precipitation water during heavy rain events, the retention arrangement must be able to absorb a sufficiently large amount of water, based on a specific duration of the heavy rain event and a specific floor area of the building arrangement. In the event of rain, water should be diverted to the retention arrangement via the roof and/or facade surfaces and absorbed by the retention arrangement.
  • the invention proposes a retention arrangement for water absorption and water storage of a minimum water quantity of 10 l/(m 2 h) to 50 l/(m 2 h), preferably 15 l, based on the floor area of the building arrangement and a duration of precipitation /(m 2 h) to 40 l/(m 2 h), with a floor area of the building arrangement of at least 50 m 2 , in particular at least 100 m 2 , particularly preferably at least 200 m 2 , and with a precipitation period of at least 0.25 h, more preferably at least 0.5 h, most preferably 0.75 h.

  • the water can also be fed into the retention structure via a central feed device, for example via a pipe or a pipeline system.
  • Pipes can be designed to lengthen the route of the rainwater, for example, run in a meandering shape and/or have turns.
  • the water can be fed into the retention structure via a plurality of feed devices arranged evenly and/or unevenly distributed over the outer surface of the retention structure.
  • the water can also be fed in by connecting to a retention roof system or a green roof in order to drain and absorb excess water from retention roofs that have become full.
  • the water can also be fed in from below, for example from a water basin, by capillary forces of the water storage material.
  • water can be fed in from below the normal level or underground, for example from septic tanks or other underground collection tanks.
  • Feeding devices can apply water from the outside and/or from the inside over a large area and/or distributed at certain points, for example via baffles or nozzles, such as spray nozzles or slot nozzles. Feed devices can also be connected to a circulation system/pumping system.
  • Structuring of the outer surfaces of the retention arrangement and/or channels can have different angles of inclination vertically and/or horizontally and thereby produce different water distribution speeds.
  • Structures and/or channels can be symmetrically and/or asymmetrically wave-shaped. They can have undercuts, which also affects water line speed and water absorption.
  • vascular systems is to be understood in particular as a system of water-conducting channels whose cross-sections decrease monotonically in the same direction of flow, for example from top to bottom in the retention arrangement or in the vertical direction, and/or where a certain amount of water in the water line in a direction of flow of the retention arrangement, for example from top to bottom or in the vertical direction, is initially distributed over a smaller number of flow channels with a larger cross section and, as the retention arrangement extends in the direction of flow, over a larger number of flow channels with smaller or equal flow cross sections.

  • pumice granules and lava granules were used as water-storing materials for a retention arrangement according to the invention examined. Minimum and maximum amounts of rain per m 2 floor area of a building arrangement or a building were assumed. The kinetics of the water absorption of the granules were determined using the method described above for determining the water absorption with free swelling in excess liquid. On the basis of the determined kinetics of the water absorption and using the bulk density, the respective volume of the retention arrangement was determined that is required to absorb and store a specific amount of rain occurring per minute of rain and m 2 floor area of the building arrangement. Finally, a design calculation was carried out, on the basis of which building planning is possible.
  • a design scenario for a building planner for a building with a floor area of 200 m 2 and an estimated duration of a heavy rain event of 45 minutes and a rain volume for scenario 2 of 0.67 l/(m 2 h) could be determined as an example, that to a volume of pumice granules (0.5 to 2 mm) of 6648 l, of pumice granules (1 to 5 mm) of 11962 l and of lava granules (2 to 5 mm) of 10000 l required to store rain per minute and square meter .
  • the maximum water absorption capacity is then determined by the maximum storage capacity of the granules.
  • Figure 1A shows a schematic of an urban, densely populated district with various buildings 1. Due to a high degree of sealing, a lower infiltration potential and high soil compaction, there can be considerable problems with the drainage of rainwater, especially during heavy rain events, combined with the risk of flooding. This is in Figure 1A characterized by a flood height X shown schematically.
  • Figure 1B shows that in the area of rainwater retention, retention roofs 2 can be used in urban areas to retain rainwater and reduce the risk of flooding. This is in Figure 1B shown by a schematically shown lower flood height XY in the case of heavy rain events. Retention roofs 2 alone, however, are not suitable for completely eliminating the risk of flooding due to the high amounts of precipitation during heavy rain events.
  • FIG 1C shows the effect of retention facades 3 on the risk of flooding of urban quarters in the context of heavy rain events.
  • Retention facades 3 are vertical retention arrangements provided on the lateral building shell or lateral outer skin of buildings 1 for water retention through water absorption and water storage. How out Figure 1C results, such retention facades 3 can have sufficiently high storage capacities per building 1 with a suitable design and through the use of suitable water storage materials in order to even completely absorb the water quantities occurring during heavy rain and thus the risk of flooding to lower to zero. In this case, the storage capacity per building for precipitation water can increase essentially linearly with increasing facade height or increasing number of storeys of the building 1 with a suitable design of the retention facades 3 .
  • Retention facades 3 can be formed by building elements in front of and/or suspended from one of the building facades, in particular in a modular design, or also by independent building walls of a building 1.
  • Retention facades 3 are preferably formed by self-supporting wall or structural element systems, which can consist of mineral substrates, for example, from which complete walls can be erected, which are statically dimensioned and inherently water-storing at the same time.
  • the water stored in the retention facade 3 can be made available to the buildings 1 for use again, either as process water by being discharged from the water storage medium or indirectly by water evaporation and the associated cooling with an associated improvement in the microclimate.
  • buildings 1 can have retention facades 3 on two opposite sides of the building (in the case of buildings 1 arranged in a building complex, such as terraced houses, 2 , below) or on all sides of the building (in the case of free-standing buildings 1, such as single-family houses or halls, 2 , below).
  • retention facades 3 can be formed by free-standing, load-bearing or non-load-bearing retention walls, which can be designed as masonry.
  • Such retention walls consist of or have components 4, which can be designed as individual stones or as plan stones.
  • known production methods for stone production from sand-lime brick or for brick production and thus established production processes can be used to produce these components 4 .
  • the water storage capacity of the building materials used can be adjusted by adapting the recipe and can therefore be optimized in relation to the application.
  • Typical water storage capacities defined as the water mass absorbed by the water storage material or the building element in relation to the dry mass of the water storage material (at a residual moisture content between 2% and 5%) can be in the range between preferably 5% to 30%, for example 20%, with the time it takes to reach the maximum water storage capacity being less than 1 hour, preferably less than 30 minutes, in particular 15 minutes or less .
  • caverns, undercuts, water-conducting structures and/or different feed points can promote optimal, fast and efficient water distribution in the retention wall.
  • the existing pore system of the building material also enables water to be discharged from the building elements 4 by gravity. If more water is introduced than can be stored via the pore system, the water exits in the lower area of the building elements 4 and can thus be used, for example, as service water in building 1 or used to water surrounding green areas.
  • Figs. 3 to 5 also show that the components 4 can be perforated, with perforations 5 being able to run in particular perpendicularly to the bearing surface in order to promote water conduction and distribution within the components 4.
  • swellable water storage material 6 can serve to store water in addition to the building material from which the components 4 are made. In principle, it is also possible for water to be stored only via a swellable water storage material 6 . As can be seen from the Figs.6 and 7 results, the swellable water storage material 6 only partially fills the perforation 5 present in the component 4 in the dry, non-swollen state, so that sufficient empty volume remains to allow the water storage material 6 to swell. In the fully swollen state, the water storage material 6 can then completely fill out the perforation 5 . The degree of filling of the perforation 5 with the water storage material 6 is to be dimensioned in such a way that it is in the swollen state of the water storage material 6 there is no component-endangering mechanical stress due to the swelling pressure.
  • Figs. 8th and 9, 10 show components 7 with swellable water storage material 6 with horizontal ( 8 ) and vertical ( Figures 9, 10 ) Openings or perforations 5, wherein, in the case of vertical perforations 5, the swellable water storage material 6 is arranged in a dry state in the region of the perforations 5 lying vertically below ( 9 ) and expands upwards when it swells, so that in the fully swollen state the cavities are essentially completely filled by the water storage material 6 ( 10 ).
  • the vertical surfaces available on the buildings have a high potential for water storage.
  • 11 shows an example of the water storage capacity for vertical retention facades 3.
  • a building with a floor area (roof area) of 120 m 2 is considered as an example, with a building width of 8 m and a building length of 15 m.
  • the storey height (taken as an example: 3 and 6 storeys, with a storey height of e.g. 3 m) and taking into account unusable window areas, different sized areas of the building facade can be used in building 1 as retention facades 3 train or use.
  • the retention facades 3 are formed by, for example, 10 cm thick retention walls, for example based on sand-lime brick with a water storage capacity of 12% based on the dry mass with a water absorption period of more than 0.5 h, the building has storage quantities of 3,291 l to 10,091 I water, which is already provided in the event that three floors and two retention facades 3 (building in association), approx. 37% above the maximum water volume of 2,400 l.
  • 1 retention facades 3 can be formed by corresponding retention walls in free-standing buildings 1 on all four vertical outer sides of the building. Only the roof areas are not designed to absorb and store water. The storage volume for rainwater could be increased by appropriate roof greening or roof retention areas.
  • water can also be supplied to the retention facades 3 via water pipe networks, possibly also by water being fed in from inside the building 1 or from below from water basins or septic tanks, for example in order to improve the microclimate through evaporation of the stored water and evaporative cooling to influence.
  • a cassette element 8 for receiving a water storage material for use in a retention arrangement.
  • the cassette element 8 is formed by a frame 9 and two perforated plates 10, with a receiving area for receiving the water storage material being formed between the perforated plates 10.
  • the perforated plates 10 have openings 11 via which the water storage material can be dehumidified once the water has been absorbed. The dehumidification preferably takes place via both flat sides of the cassette element 8 .
  • the openings 11 can also be used to drain accumulating precipitation water out of the cassette element 8 . What is not shown is that the supply of precipitation water can take place via lines that lead into the heat storage material.
  • FIG. 13 shows schematically the arrangement of several cassette elements 8 from 12 in a union. Due to the modular design, retention volumes and areas of different sizes can be easily produced.
  • the lattice structure 12 shows a lattice structure 12 designed and set up to accommodate a water storage material for use in a retention arrangement for retaining rainwater.
  • the lattice structure 12 can, as in 14 shown, have a non-planar surface profile, the contour or-das Surface profile of a building structure, for example, adapted to the contour of the outer facade of a building.
