COMPARATIVE RAINFALL
• Worst recorded UK rainfall: 341mm in one day (averaging 15mm/hr for 22 hrs) in Cumbria in December 2015.
• A hydraulic conductivity of 5,300mm/hr (above the 5,000mm/hr min. requirement for 6mm) would take ≈94 seconds to
drain 15mm of water.
• All Tarmac porous asphalts are designed to provide a minimum hydraulic conductivity of 5,000mm/hr/m2 using the
BS DD 229 testing method and meet the requirements laid out in CIRIA 753 and SAPCA.
