Irrigation

The arid nature of the area and the superimposed problems caused by the increased water demands of a growing population has turned water management into an increasing challenge. Therefore in order to better deal with this complex problem a series of steps will also be observed in addition to the known irrigation techniques.

The irrigation technique used will be the most appropriate for the area in question. Drip irrigation will be prioritized however while taking advantage of the different emitter and mini/micro sprinklers classifications.
In addition to the irrigation techniques there are other steps, which can be implemented in order to safeguard the water resources. 

  • Choice of plants and their location
  • The use of lawns and other turf areas
  • Scheduled watering
  • Mulching, whether natural or artificial 
  • Use of electronic devices
  • Soil optimization through aggregates and humus

The irrigation design will be carried out with Vectorworks Landmark (compatible with AutoCAD) in order to be integrated directly into the design documentation.
