Climate Change Factor

Climate Change Factor

This factor allows for the likely increase in Rainfall Intensity expected during the drainage systems design life due to climate change. Typical values are given below;

Increase in Peak Rainfall Intensity

  • 5% - 1990-2025
  • 10% - 2025-2055
  • 20% - 2055-2085
  • 30% - 2085-2115
