Engineering water security in 72 hours
An intensive design hackathon matching student engineering teams with water-stressed tribal hamlets to draft viable, gravity-fed distribution blueprints.
Rigorous hydraulic parameters
01. Source Viability
02. Gravity-Fed Design
03. Material Optimization
Teams must calculate daily water demand per capita against seasonal dry-spell fluctuations of the local source well.
Blueprints must leverage natural elevation profiles to eliminate expensive electricity costs for tribal hamlets.
Pipelines are budgeted to the meter, using standard commercial diameters to ensure immediate procurement viability.
