Urban development increases runoff while leaving less space available for stormwater infrastructure. Rainfall, snowmelt and increasingly intense storm events can place additional pressure on existing drainage networks, particularly within dense and highly paved environments.
Modular underground storage provides a flexible way to create the required detention or retention capacity below ground while maintaining valuable space at the surface.
Effective underground stormwater storage starts with understanding the hydraulic requirements, available space and structural demands of the site. These factors determine how the system is configured and integrated with the wider drainage strategy.
Modular systems allow stormwater storage to be configured around the requirements of the site, helping project teams balance hydraulic performance, available space and structural demands.
Create high-capacity underground detention or retention within constrained urban environments.
Combine stormwater management with soil volume and healthy urban trees where the project requires both.
