AtlanVault

PRECAST CONCRETE ON-SITE STORMWATER DETENTION TANKS

AtlanVault is our range of precast concrete OSD (On-site Stormwater Detention) tanks, proudly manufactured at Atlan’s own production facility.

The AtlanVault utilises the latest engineering, with precast technologies, including 50MPa concrete and a variety of reinforcement to enhance structural strength. The AtlanVault delivers a truck trafficable concrete on-site stormwater detention tank solution that is optimised in design to achieve the best freight to site efficiencies.

Features & Benefits

Modular Design Flexibility

Offers customisable footprints and heights to accommodate specific site requirements, ensuring optimal integration into diverse project layouts.

Immediate Trafficability

Constructed with 50MPa cured concrete, allowing OSD tanks to be installed, backfilled, and made truck-trafficable immediately, maintaining site accessibility without delays.

Efficient Installation

Modules are delivered ready for immediate installation, eliminating the need for on-site storage and minimising construction time.

Manufactured in Australia

Locally fabricated in our National precast concrete production facilities to meet ISO9001 Quality Standards.

Reduced Excavation Needs

The design does not rely on stone backfill for support or storage, resulting in smaller excavations and less soil disposal compared to other systems.

Integrated Water Quality Solutions

AtlanVault can incorporate AtlanFilter cartridges to achieve water quality objectives without the need for additional separate tanks.

Robust Construction

Engineered with high-strength precast concrete and various reinforcement methods to enhance structural integrity, making it suitable for installation under high-traffic areas such as car parks and driveways.

Easy Maintenance

Designed with low-maintenance requirements to ensure long-term functionality and efficiency.

The AtlanVault (formerly referred to as a SPELVault or SPEL Tank) can be arranged in modular configurations to achieve small to very large on-site detention tank (OSD tank) requirements with flexibility in footprint design.

It is a robust solution for on-site stormwater detention tank requirements, typically installed under car parks in commercial premises, or common driveways in multi-unit developments.

The AtlanVault is selected for its easy access for maintenance, strong traffic rating, simple installation protocol and ability for large volumes of on-site stormwater detention to be installed in a single day and truck trafficable immediately.

The AtlanVault is used to provide an under driveway trafficable solution to house Atlanfilter cartridges maximising the usable space of a development.

AtlanVault systems are designed with low-maintenance requirements to ensure long-term functionality and efficiency. Maintenance tasks typically include removing accumulated sediment, debris, and contaminants to preserve storage capacity and flow rates. Optional integrated water quality solutions, such as AtlanFilter cartridges, simplify pollutant removal, reducing the need for additional equipment or complex cleaning procedures. Atlan Stormwater can assist with both regular and emergency maintenance solutions.

AtlanVault (Formerly SPELVault) FAQ

AtlanVault is a range of precast concrete On-site Stormwater Detention (OSD) tanks, formerly known as SPELVault, and sometimes referred to as SPEL Tanks. It is designed for efficient stormwater management in commercial and residential developments, offering flexible footprint designs, underground installation, trafficability and robust structural integrity.
Precast concrete  is a construction technique where modular concrete components are manufactured in a controlled, off-site environment using specialised moulds and formwork. Once ready, these high-quality concrete products are transported to the site for immediate installation, allowing for quicker and more efficient construction.

MUSIC (Model for Urban Stormwater Improvement Conceptualisation) is a tool used to enhance stormwater strategies. For the AtlanVault, MUSIC models are tailored for various Australian councils and regions, and are available for download on our website.

AtlanVault provides several advantages, including:

  • Flexibility in footprint design and tank height to suit site requirements.
  • Immediate trafficability after installation, allowing continued site accessibility.
  • Reduced excavation needs due to structural strength and precast concrete design.
  • Quick and efficient installation with minimal on-site storage requirements.

AtlanVault is commonly used in commercial premises under car parks, in common driveways for multi-unit developments, and in other similar applications where robust on-site stormwater detention is required. This includes:

  • Residential
  • Commercial
  • Industrial
  • Retail sites
  • Subdivisions
  • Urban infrastructure
Yes, AtlanVault is designed to be truck trafficable, making it ideal for installation under driveways, car parks, and other areas subject to heavy vehicular traffic. The tanks are delivered cured to 50MPa, ensuring they can handle significant loads immediately after installation.
AtlanVault modules are delivered to the site ready to install immediately, which is an important benefit of their cured concrete construction. The tanks are designed to be easy to install, with no need for on-site fabrication or storage, which optimises space and requires less construction time than cast-in-situ (cast-in-place) alternatives.
Yes, AtlanVault can be designed with filter bays for the internal integration of AtlanFilter cartridges to achieve water quality outcomes and provide tertiary filtration capabilities. This eliminates the need for additional tertiary filtration in separate tanks, streamlining the overall stormwater management process.

AtlanVault is a precast concrete OSD tank system, primarily designed for stormwater detention in high-traffic areas like commercial car parks. It offers flexible design options and can incorporate AtlanFilter cartridges for integrated water quality management. 

In contrast, TankStor tanks (formerly SPEL tankstor tanks) are made from glass-reinforced plastics, specifically fibreglass (FRP). Their fibreglass design makes TankStor tanks lightweight, with excellent corrosion-resistant properties, and versatile for storing such substances as:

  • Water 
  • Sewage
  • Farm effluent
  • Petroleum products

Atlan TankStor tanks are ideal for both underground and above-ground applications, including firefighting reservoirs and accidental spillage containment.
