description |
The purpose of the Resilient Water
Infrastructure Design Brief is to guide users on how
resilience can be built into the engineering design of their
project. With a focus on the three natural hazards most
likely to affect water and sanitation infrastructure
(droughts, floods, and high winds from storms), the document
provides a six-step process to help users address weather
and climate related challenges that are most likely to
affect an infrastructure component at some point in its
operational lifetime. In order to achieve both systems level
resilience and infrastructure level resilience, this design
brief should be used in tandem with other World Bank
publications, such as the 2018 guidance document “Building
the Resilience of WSS Utilities to Climate Change and Other
Threats: A Road Map,” which emphasizes systems level
resilience and analysis. The design brief highlights the
relationship between these two documents and the unique
function that each serves in improving overall resilience in
the water sector. It also includes guidance for users to
incorporate resilience design principles into projects’
appraisal documents and a sample module/task description for
applying the two documents to an engineering design or
feasibility study terms of reference. |
