The effectiveness of infiltration box in reducing surface runoff / Noorashiekin Khalid

The laboratory scale infiltration box was introduced to temporarily store stormwater, act as medium to determine the most suitable depth of material compositions and determine the optimum of retention time. The infiltration trench is introduced as structural protection measure, reducing the surface...
