Rainwater as a alternative source of water supply in building - measurements and evaluation

There are many water sources available on building sites that can be use as a alternative water sources for supplement the more traditional water sources. These water sources are usually suitable for non-potable purposes and vary greatly in quality so that the most of the on-site water resources have limited application and of course are never suitable for human consumption. Rain-water harvesting appears to be one of the most promising alternatives for supplying freshwater in the face of increasing water scarcity and escalating demand. Advantage of the rainwater harvesting is availability in the most places over the world and that rainwater usually is one of the purest waters available of all the alternate water sources. Submitted paper contains an overview of the possible rain water use for non-potable purposes in one school buildings as well as a possibility of the rainwater harvesting for buildings in TUKE campus as a planned concept for rainwater management.
