Our Removable Dam system
has been engineered to provide similar levels of protection to permanent
flood defence schemes, but with the distinct advantage of being removable
when not required - thus preserving the integrity of the landscape
and architecture. The system can be used between existing structures
but has been primarily designed to be completely self-supporting over
almost any distance and may be specified for virtually any height
of flood water.

Recommended Uses :-
Roadways, subways, embankment promenades,
industrial complexes, shopping precincts
Listed and historic buildings where
it's necessary to preserve the fabric of the building or it isn't
possible to fit flood barriers to the structure
Scenic areas where permanent flood
defences would despoil the outlook
Whole villages or susceptible areas
of towns and cities
Anywhere that permanent defences
are impractical
|
 |
Each system is custom fabricated and has been designed to withstand
water depths of several metres over the specified distance.
The only permanent elements of our system are the supporting base
rails which are recessed into ground level foundations with the components
of the dam itself being stored until needed.
The system has been used with great success in Germany and we can
provide testimonials to its effectiveness or arrange site visits if
required. |
