View Water Harvesting at the REB in 3D

15 November, 2010 10:55 by Anne

 

This animation in 3D shows the water harvesting process at the Royal Exhibition Building. The animation commences with a rainy day and shows the path of the rain drops from the roof of the building to the drain pipes. The drops of rain are followed along the stormwater pipes, through the gross pollutant trap to the 1,350,000 litre underground water tank. Follow the journey of the rain and see what happens when the sun comes out.

Refer back to the blogs by Megan, 12 March (3D Visualisations) and 12 July (The water harvest process in 3D), and you can follow the connections of this 3D animation project by year 11 work experience students and Advanced 3D Modelling.
