Design skills help steel UK sites to stormwater problems

Arriving at the most cost effective solution means taking account of nine parameters:

  • volume of storage required – say 550 cubic meters
  • gravity or pumped system? – say gravity
  • if gravity, the depths available – say 4 meters
  • if pumped, the maximum desired depth – not applicable here
  • site constraints (the plan area available) – say 42 x 15 meters
  • loading criteria – HA (Highways Agency) only
  • design life required – say 100 years
  • allowable discharge – say 11 liters/second
  • environmental classification – say non-aggressive
