Reusable Temporary Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDS)
Reusable temporary sustainable drainage systems (SUDS) are used to ensure the project are not causing any escape of surface water from the perimeter of the site. The materials used, will allow the rings to be lifted out and used on future projects. Therefore, eliminating the requirement to keep on buying new materials. The SUDS area is very discreet and still provides space for materials and walkways to be created overhead.
This method is relatively common practice in modern day construction, however the concrete drainage rings used form a solid temporary design and can be utilised for future use on other sites by lifting out of the ground on completion of the project.
On this project the temporary SUDS pond is tied into and forms part of the permanent drainage with the natural contours of the land all feeding down to the lower south east corner of the site.
