Responsibilities:

  • Using Autodesk Civil3D & AutoCAD to create concept site plan for Innovation Way development
  • Conducted research to find setback and buffer requirements for the development
  • Using Excel & Google Sheets to create multiple sheets to make work more efficient
  • Aided in modeling Design Storm Precipitations in Stormwise/ICPR4 program
  • Working with colleagues to create Stormwater, Wastewater, Traffic memos for Client (Google Docs)
  • Aided in finding Planned and Programmed Improvements for Innovation Way while preparing Traffic Memo
    • Documentation Used: Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
      • Provided by Metroplan Orlando, the City of Orlando, and the Orange County Government

Pre & Post Development Flow Comparision:


Design Storm		Pre-DevelopmentPost-Development
Flow rate (cfs)Flow Rate (cfs)
St. Johns River Mean Annual 2.3 yr/24 hr33.7019.45
St. Johns River 25 yr/24 hr78.171.79
Orange County 25 yr/24 hr52.8549.95

Since our post-Development flows were calculated to be less than in pre-development, this means our proposed development would be an improvement to the community!
