Technical Resource Library

The WEFTA Technical Resources Library is designed to support WASH practitioners, local partners, and community organizations by providing practical water and sanitation design, construction, operations, and capacity strengthening resources.

WEFTA’s goal is to make field-oriented technical materials readily accessible, including design manuals, engineering calculation templates, O&M training videos, standard construction drawings, technical specifications, and other implementation resources that support sustainable WASH development.

The library also includes links to peer organizations and sector partners that provide additional research, technical guidance, and case studies to support collaboration and long-term project sustainability.

Materials you will find in our Library:

  • Training Videos
  • Construction Plans
  • Design Manuals and Technical Specifications
  • Design Calculations Templates
  • Technical Resource Documents
  • Capacity Strengthening & Project Management
  • Links to Other WASH Resource Sites

Each folder of the Technical Resources Library contains a directory file of the folder’s contents in both Excel and PDF formats. Before scrolling through the resources in each of the folders, we recommend first reviewing the folder directory file to understand what resources are in each folder.
