Ciria The SuDS Manual (C753) The SuDS manual (C697), is highly regarded and considered one of CIRIA’s most influential areas of work. In recognition of the interdisciplinary nature of SuDS as well as increased knowledge and research, the SuDS manual has been updated to incorporate the latest technical advice and adaptable processes to assist in the planning, design, construction, management and maintenance of good SuDS. The updated SuDS Manual incorporates the very latest research, industry practice and guidance. In delivering SuDS there is a requirement to meet the framework set out by the Government’s ‘non statutory technical standards’ and the revised SuDS Manual complements these but goes further to support the cost-effective delivery of multiple benefits.
