Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need attenuation tanks
An attenuation system provides a long-term solution for mitigating the risk of flooding caused by water runoff during prolonged rainfall. These systems include a flow control chamber specifically designed to manage the volume of water discharged into nearby sewer systems or natural watercourses, such as rivers or reservoirs.
How close can stormwater attenuation tank be to a building?
Unlike a soakaway system, underground floodways can be positioned much closer to a building. The critical consideration is ensuring that the building load or foundation load does not impact the tank. Ideally, if you were to draw a 45-degree angle from the foundation, that line should not intersect the system. The exact placement may vary based on the tank’s depth, but generally, they can be situated in close proximity to the building.
What are critical factors to consider with stormwater?
When selecting the best stormwater system for your project, consider the following key factors:
- Stormwater System Application
- Sizing
- Footprint
- Cover Depth
- Base Preparation
- Stormwater System Construction Equipment
- Backfill
- Product Material
Stormwater System Total Installation Cost
How do flood tunnels work ?
An underground floodway functions by directing excess flood or stormwater from the surface into subterranean tunnel facilities. These flood tunnels are built in stages and are typically located in urban areas where conventional river channelization is not feasible due to existing infrastructure constraints.
How does an attenuation tank work?
Attenuation systems function as a simple method for storing excess water, collecting water from multiple inlets such as pipes and channel drains, typically with a single outlet. Acting as a reservoir, the tank allows water to accumulate, preventing downstream drains from becoming overloaded during intense storms. The outlet often includes a flow control device, such as an orifice plate or vortex flow control, to manage the rate of water discharge. Tank size is determined by factors such as rainfall intensity, surface area, and considerations for climate variability.
Well-designed tanks should consistently manage the site’s water volume effectively, ensuring reliable performance under varying weather conditions.
