What are the benefits of modular precast concrete OSD tanks vs. cast-in-situ tanks?

Construction efficiency, resiliency to poor weather, design flexibility, and faster installation are all valued benefits of modular precast concrete tanks. Modular precast detention tanks and cast-in-situ tanks are both concrete-based alternatives for on-site stormwater detention (OSD). These systems manage incoming stormwater flows and temporarily store them to prevent local flooding. The key point of difference […]

Why choose an underground OSD tank?

Underground detention assets provide many tangible benefits to developers, stakeholders, and the local community. Installed beneath the surface of your project, these types of OSD (On-site Stormwater Detention) systems are designed to meet the footprint constraints of modern development and conserve developable land. The benefits of subsurface OSD solutions include – Efficient land use Reduced

Are OSD tanks compatible with stormwater treatment?

Yes, stormwater detention assets are compatible with stormwater treatment assets to create solutions that effectively manage both water quality and water quantity. Surface runoff is the rainfall that runs off the ground because the land is unable to soak it during storm events. On-site Stormwater Detention (OSD tanks) manage this volume of water and provide

What is the volume provided by each geocellular tank module?

Project efficiencies across freight, assembly and installation are improved by modules with high storage capacity. Each geocellular system has different storage capacity per module – with larger modules needing less modules for equivalent amounts of storage volume. Module volume for common systems include – System Litres per module AtlanCube 1,000 Atlantis Flo-Tank 119 Rainsmart Ellipse

What are the installation benefits of higher volume geocellular tank modules?

Installation efficiency is aided by larger module sizes with less components. By increasing the footprint of each module, more cubic metres of storage can be installed with less total handling, assembly and on-site labour. Larger modules with fewer components lead to reductions in the complexity of assembly across the entire tank volume – effectively scaling

How many components are required to assemble 100 cubic metres of geocellular tank modules?

Geocellular storage systems require different amounts of components per tank module. Large modules with less components can be rapidly deployed – and installation is streamlined. In comparison, small module sizes with high amounts of components require more handling and result in longer installation timelines and greater complexity of assembly. Components per cubic metre of storage

How many modules are required per cubic metre of storage for geocellular tank systems?

The number of modules per cubic metre of storage varies across different geocellular tank systems, and module size is a key influential factor. Modules per cubic metre of storage impacts installation efficiency – with larger modules requiring less lifts, maneuvering, and assembly for equivalent volumes of storage. For common geocellular systems, the reported number of

What are the structural and material properties of polymer channel drains?

AtlanChannel is manufactured from a patented polymer mix that incorporates renewable resources, including recycled glass and street sweepings. These act as a bonded filler to enhance strength and durability. Polymer channel drains are lighter than concrete alternatives, while maintaining rigid structure and compressive strength, which ensures they can support heavy loads and the rigors of

What is an anti-shunt drainage channel?

Drainage channels with anti-shunt capabilities incorporate design features to prevent the movement of grates due to longitudinal forces, which can push, impact, and dislodge grates. These forces are most prevalent in trafficable and high-use installations that experience repeated or heavy loads.   This movement, commonly known as ‘shunting’, is prevented by robust design features that ensure
