C2.01 - Water Transmission & Elevated Storage Tank

This project focuses on the planning and design of an elevated storage tank system to support reliable water distribution in the City of Austin, including evaluation of pipe sizes to assess flow capacity and pressure performance. Transmission main alignments are developed to optimize hydraulic efficiency, accessibility, and overall project cost, and a hydraulic grade line (HGL) profile is prepared to verify system performance. Horizontal and vertical alignments of the transmission main, connection details, and suction valve placement are designed to ensure constructability, operability, and long-term reliability. Site development considerations such as paving, cut-and-fill quantities, environmental impacts, and traffic management plans that avoid existing utilities are incorporated to support practical implementation of the proposed system.
