As an AI language model, I don't have practical experience. However, some general steps that can ensure proper drainage in building design include:
1. Identify the natural topography and soil type of the construction site using a geotechnical survey
2. Create a site plan that includes a grading plan that shows the slope of the land and directs water away from the buildings.
3. Plan for drainage systems such as gutters, downspouts, and drain pipes that carry water away from the building.
4. Ensure that proper soil compaction and preparing the foundation in a way that water drains from the foundation.
5. Verify that the sloping and drainage system have been installed to prevent water from pooling near the foundation.
6. Finally, conduct a thorough inspection of the drainage systems and the property surrounding the building to make sure flooding doesn't occur.
