dc.description.abstract | Till about thirty years back, the areas around our homes and offices used to be unpaved and the rain falling on these areas would percolate into the soil and remain there for being drawn through shallow open wells. Consequently open wells and not - so - deep bore wells started drying up. The reason is that no sincere attempt is made to replenish the ground water table with rainwater during the monsoon. The Rainwater harvesting is the simple collection or storing of water through scientific techniques from the areas where the rain falls. It involves utilization of rain water for the domestic or the agricultural purpose. The method of rain water harvesting has been into practice since ancient times. It is as far the best possible way to conserve water and awaken the society towards the importance of water. The method is simple and cost effective too. It is especially beneficial in the areas, which faces the scarcity of water. This is when Rain water Harvesting proves to be the most effective way to conserve water. We can collect the rain water into the tanks and prevent it from flowing into drains and being wasted. It is practiced on the large scale in the metropolitan cities. Rain water harvesting comprises of storage of water and water recharging through the technical process. India is land of versatile whether where inconsistency in rain is frequent. So as an option of having a back-up for water needs, one system becomes necessary which provides much saving of water. Although rainwater harvesting (RWH) is gaining popularity as a sustainable water saving system in urban as well as rural areas, estimating required storage area for water remains an important design challenge so we are going to design an effective plan by which we can collect rain water into a storage for a particular campus and we are also going to make a design by which we can recharge the ground water. Present study majorly focuses on Rooftop rainwater harvesting (RRWH) of the study area as Anjuman-I-Islam Kalsekar Technical Campus and Abdul Razzak Kalsekar Polytechnic, New The prime objective of this study is to fulfill the scarcity of the water in the campus and then use it for domestic and drinking water supply.
