Detailed Summary of Model Inputs Project: 427-477 W49th Ave, Vancouver Issued: July 21, 2020

Building Description The project in Vancouver, BC consists of a 14 storey multi-unit residential building over a 3 level below-grade parkade. The parkade levels include storage rooms, service rooms, corridors, stairs, elevators and vestibules. CRUs for retail and restaurant occupy most of the ground floor level. The 5th floor level contains spaces for daycare facilities and an amenity room. All stories other above-grade floor levels contain residential suites, corridors, stairs and elevators. There is about 125,000 ft2 of conditioned floor area. The above grade window-to-wall ratio (WWR) is about 37%. The form factor (i.e. the ratio of building surface area to floor area) is about 0.97.

Suites and amenity room will be heated and cooled by 4 pipe fan coils, and will be ventilated by HRVs with about 72% heat recovery efficiency. Corridors will be heated and cooled by a hydronic makeup air unit (MUA). Commercial retail units (CRUs) and daycare spaces will be conditioned by variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems. CRUs will have ventilation systems as a result of tenant improvements. Pressurized elevator lobbies and vestibule below grade will be served by a hydronic heating-only air handler. Several exhaust fans will serve parkade, storage rooms and service rooms. Heating will be provided by electric resistance heaters. Hot and chilled water will be provided by central air-source heat pumps (ASHPs). Domestic hot water heating will be provided by condensing boilers.

Project Description

Summary description of the assumed proposed building design3

427-477 W 49th Ave. is a proposed 14-storey multi-unit residential high-rise with 12,150 m2

above grade gross floor area. The structure includes three parking levels below grade (19,470 m2 total GFA), and several low roof terraces/balconies. There is a stair/elevator core at the centre of the tower which extends the building height. The structure is composed of 275 mm two-way concrete slabs supported by concrete columns and 300 mm concrete basement-level walls at the perimeter. The elevator/stair cores are 200-600 mm thick concrete walls. The slab on grade is 125 mm thick with 50 mm extruded polystyrene insulation and vapour retarder. The foundation structural design has yet to be defined. For the purpose of this assessment, the foundation structure material usage (footings and piers) is based on an estimate from another building of similar size and function, scaled to the total building gross floor area. The building’s wall envelope consists of fibre cement cladding with 130 mm mineral wood batt insulation, 75 mm continuous polyisocyanurate insulation and 150 mm light gauge steel stud back-up. The building’s glazing includes aluminum-framed, triple-pane window wall, and curtain wall at the first couple of floor levels. The roof envelopes are assumed to be 2-ply SBS membrane, with 100 mm extruded polystyrene insulation. Roof areas are covered with ballast, concrete pavers, or an intensive green roof system.

Proposed measures that will be explored during design to reduce embodied emissions.

▪ Selection of lower impact concrete mixes including those that contain supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) such as fly ash.

▪ Refinement of the concrete structural design, including slab and wall thicknesses, and the foundation design.

▪ Investigations on the use of different envelope products/systems, including cladding, glazing, and insulation alternatives.

Please note: since this assessment is based on a schematic design and material quantification rules-of-thumb, the assessment conducted for building permit may be of higher impact.

3 Please note that the assumed building complex design is schematic and subject to change

2.1 Existing Conditions The existing property is located east of the Langara - 49th Avenue Canada Line Station, at the corner of West 49th Avenue and Cambie Street in the Oakridge community in the City of Vancouver. Existing single-family homes occupy the lots with a combination of hardscape and landscape surfaces surrounding the existing building footprint. An existing 200mm diameter combined sewer fronts the site and flows east along West 49th Avenue. Refer to Appendix A for the pre-development site plan.

2.2 Proposed Development The proposed development consists of a new 14-storey mixed-use building, situated above three levels of underground parking. The proposed building’s parking structure footprint will abut the existing property lines along all frontages, except for parkade setbacks along south proposed building. Proposed building setbacks of 3.00m will be provided along the south side of the development. The building will include amenity space and planters on level 5, and green roofs are proposed at the floor above level 14. Runoff from landscape and hardscape areas will need to be captured and drained into the building’s storm system. A new storm service will be required to connect the proposed development to the existing combined sewer along West 49th Avenue, subject to City approval, with details provided by the Mechanical consultant. Refer to Appendix B for the post-development site plan and Appendix C for the architectural basement level plan.

3 RAINWATER MANAGEMENT CRITERIA

The City of Vancouver’s IRMP was adopted to provide long-term green infrastructure and to protect and improve the water quality in the waterbodies surrounding Vancouver. The plan requires projects to meet the following quantitative and qualitative targets:

1. Water Volume Reduction Target – Capture the first 24mm of rainfall in 24-hours from all pervious and impervious site areas, and infiltrate, evaporate, or reuse it. Landscape areas with adequate growing medium depth will meet the 24mm capture requirement.

2. Water Release Rate Target – The rainwater management system for the development shall be designed to ensure that the post-development peak discharge flow rate to the sewer is not greater than the pre-development peak discharge flow rate for a 10-year return period storm event. The City of Vancouver’s 2014 intensity-Duration-Frequency curve (IDF) shall be utilized for the pre-development design flow calculations, and the City’s 2100 IDF curve shall be utilized for the post-development design flow calculations, to account for the effects of climate change.

3. Water Quality Target – Treat the first 24mm of rainfall from all pervious and imperious surfaces to remove 80% Total Suspended Solids (TSS) by mass prior to discharge from the site. For impervious surfaces with high pollutant loads, including roads, driveways, and parking lots, the rainfall to be treated increases to the first 48mm of rainfall.

The intent of these targets is to mitigate the impacts of increased yearly precipitation due to climate change, increased development density, and decreased pervious surfaces that allow rainwater to infiltrate. The implementation of green infrastructure practices or source controls keeps harmful rainwater pollutants from entering the receiving waterways and adds resiliency to the City’s drainage system.

4 ONSITE RAINWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN

The proposed development is subject to the rainwater management targets identified in the City of Vancouver’s IRMP. In order to meet the City’s quantitative and qualitative targets, the project site is proposing the rainwater management facilities as described in the following sections.

4.1 Water Volume Reduction Target The City’s IRMP requires that developments target to capture the first 24mm of rainfall in 24-hours from all pervious and impervious site areas and infiltrate, evaporate, or reuse it where possible.

The water volume reduction target for the proposed development is calculated as follows:

𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 = 𝑆𝑖𝑡𝑒 𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 × 24𝑚𝑚

𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 = 2455𝑚 × 24𝑚𝑚 = 58.9𝑚

A target rainfall capture volume of 58.9m3 will need to be managed onsite. The following subsections will investigate the feasibility of the different tiers of water volume reduction measures as outlined in the City’s Rainwater Management Bulletin. Refer to Appendix D for additional details.

4.1.1 Tier 1

Tier 1 systems are based on volume-reducing green infrastructure practices such as infiltration into in-situ soil, rainwater harvesting and re-use, and green roofs. As the basement level structure extends to the property line in all directions, directing onsite infiltration to in-situ soils is not possible.

A green roof is proposed to meet the Tier 1 criteria. Green roofs increase the evapotranspiration from the site creating a more natural hydrological system compared to conventional roofs. As well, green roofs directly reduce peak flows and the volume runoff to the storm system. A green roof with a minimum growing medium thickness of 150mm and a total area of approximately 275m2 is proposed for the development site, which will provide approximately 6.6m3 of rainfall capture volume. Details are to be coordinated with the Architect, Mechanical, Landscape and Structural consultants as required.

4.1.2 Tier 2

Tier 2 systems consist of non-infiltrating landscapes. Examples of Tier 2 practices are redirecting runoff to absorbent landscaping on slab, planter boxes, and lined bioretention systems. Planters and soft landscaped surfaces provide aesthetic means of stormwater source control. A minimum

Page 24: Sustainable Design Strategy Rezoning Submission 427 Ave...LEED AP BD+C, CaGBC Faculty Certified Passive House Consultant Partner Kane Consulting Partnership B.2 – Performance Limits

TRANSCA VANCOUVER W49 AVE LTD. PRELIMINARY RAINWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN 427-477 W49TH AVENUE

5

of 450mm of topsoil overlain by sod and other absorbent landscaping materials are to be installed where appropriate on site. The topsoil acts as a natural filter for the rainwater, and the pervious material retains water landing on the surface, reducing the runoff rate during rainfall events.

According to the City’s BMP Toolkit, a void space ratio of up to 18% can be used for the growing medium. As a result, any landscape areas provided with a minimum growing minimum depth of 135mm may be considered in achieving the initial rainfall capture target.

From the Architectural drawings Issued for Rezoning dated June 16, 2020, planter boxes are proposed for this development on level 5, with an assumed minimum growing medium depth of 0.45m to 0.90m. The proposed trees and planter boxes will assist in rainfall capture and evaporation, which will ultimately reduce the rainfall volume discharged to the City’s infrastructure. The total planter area currently proposed for the development is 148m2, which will provide a minimum volume managed of approximately 3.6m3.

4.1.3 Tier 3

Tier 3 systems consist of using detention in combination with water quality treatment practices. Any runoff not captured by the proposed Tier 1 and Tier 2 landscaping systems will be detained and treated before being released to the City’s storm system.

A detention facility with a minimum capacity of 48.3 m3 will be required to limit the post-development flows and retain the rainfall capture balance. The detention facility will be connected a downstream flow control device to slowly release rainwater into the City’s infrastructure. Refer to Appendix F for detention tank sizing and the following section for the release rate target.

4.2 Water Release Rate Target The City’s Rainwater Management Bulletin dated July 2018 recommends that the 2014 and 2100 IDF curves be used to calculate the peak rainwater discharge for the pre-development and post-development conditions, respectively. As per the IDF curves, the City recommends using 10-year recurrence interval and a 5-minute inlet time to calculate the peak rainwater discharge for comprehensive development areas.

The existing site was comprised of impervious and landscape surfaces and had a pre-development runoff coefficient of 0.55. The post-development condition will include landscape surfaces, impermeable surfaces, and a green roof, which will reduce previous surfaces and result in the runoff coefficient being increased to 0.78. Refer to Appendix E for the runoff coefficient calculations.

The Rational Method was used to calculate the peak pre-development and post-development rainwater discharges during the 10-year, 5-minute storm event. The peak pre-development

Page 25: Sustainable Design Strategy Rezoning Submission 427 Ave...LEED AP BD+C, CaGBC Faculty Certified Passive House Consultant Partner Kane Consulting Partnership B.2 – Performance Limits

TRANSCA VANCOUVER W49 AVE LTD. PRELIMINARY RAINWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN 427-477 W49TH AVENUE

6

discharge was calculated as 34.7 L/s. The target post-development flow rate was found to be 4.7 L/s, which was calculated as the lesser of the pre-development condition and the flow restriction required to detain the rainfall capture volume balance. Refer to Appendix F for detention tank size calculations.

A flow control device will be required as part of the building’s plumbing system to limit the release rate as required. An emergency bypass will also be required for events exceeding the 10-year storm event, or if there is a blockage.

Given proposed layout of the site, it is assumed that the detention tank, flow control device and emergency bypass will be located within the building footprint. Details are to be coordinated by the Architect, Mechanical and Structural consultants as required.

4.3 Water Quality Treatment Target The target water quality treatment volume is derived from treating 48mm of rainfall per day that falls within the site in high pollutant areas, and 24mm in low pollutant areas. High pollutant areas include roads, driveways, and parking lots. Low pollutant areas include landscaping and the building roof. The City requires 80% of the TSS by mass to be removed prior to discharge from site. The target treatment flow rate is calculated as follows:

𝑇𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝐹𝑙𝑜𝑤 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 = 𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑏𝑒 𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑 ÷ 24 ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠

𝑇𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝐹𝑙𝑜𝑤 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 =(𝐻𝑖𝑔ℎ 𝑃𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑡 𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 × 48𝑚𝑚) + (𝐿𝑜𝑤 𝑃𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑡 𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 × 24𝑚𝑚)

24 ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠

𝑃𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑒𝑑 𝑇𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝐹𝑙𝑜𝑤 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 =(525𝑚 × 48𝑚𝑚) + (1930𝑚 × 24𝑚𝑚)

24 ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠

𝑃𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑒𝑑 𝑇𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝐹𝑙𝑜𝑤 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 =2.98𝑚

ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟

To meet the water quality target, a Jellyfish Filtration System by Imbrium is recommended. The Jellyfish system meets the required TSS removal specification and has received both Washington State Department of Ecology’s Technology Assessment Protocol – Ecology Program (TAPE) and Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Canada certification, as required by the July 2018 Bulletin.

5 MONITORING AND MAINTENANCE

Regular system maintenance helps to ensure that the rainwater management facilities remain in working order for the lifetime of the development. The owner should inspect the rainwater management system regularly to ensure that it is operating as designed.

5.1 Inspection Procedure Conduct a visual examination of the roof and surface drains and check for debris that

could restrict or block flow.

Remove access cover and conduct a visual examination of the detention tank, flow control manhole and any oil water separators. The separators should be checked for debris that could restrict or block flow, with particular attention to any inlets and outlets. Sediment should be removed from the separators once it has reached a depth of 100mm.

Remove grates and conduct a visual examination of all catch basins and surface drains. Both should be checked for debris that could restrict or block flow, with particular attention to outlets. Sediment should be removed from the catch basins once it has reached a depth of 100mm.

At least once a year conduct an observation of system performance of the entire rainwater management facilities during a significant rainfall event.

6 CLOSING

Transca Vancouver W49 Ave Ltd. is proposing to redevelop the existing lots at W49th Avenue to a fourteen-storey development. The reduction of pervious surfaces and changing rainfall intensities due to climate change will result in a net increase in peak runoff generated by the site, which will be managed by targeting rainfall volume reduction, rainwater detention and controlled release rate, and improved water quality. Due to the extent of the underground parking, Tier 1 volume reduction strategies were limited to the green roof. Tier 2 and Tier 3 strategies proposed include absorbent landscaping, a rainwater detention tank and flow control device, and mechanical treatment to limit the development’s impact on the City’s storm system.

We trust you find the above suitable for your needs. Should you have any questions or comments on the information contained herein, please do not hesitate to contact the Project Manager.
