In late 2021, our company had the privilege of supplying 4,859 modules of our state-of-the-art Flo-Vault® system for a critical infrastructure project in Taylors Beach, NSW. This project, commissioned by Daracon Group, involved the construction of an underground infiltration tank designed to manage stormwater runoff and support sustainable water management practices in the area.

Project Background

Taylors Beach, located in the coastal region of New South Wales, experiences significant rainfall, necessitating efficient stormwater management solutions to prevent flooding and ensure groundwater recharge. Daracon Group, a leading civil construction company, undertook this project to develop an advanced underground infiltration system capable of handling large volumes of stormwater.

Objectives

Efficient Stormwater Management: To create a system that effectively captures and infiltrates stormwater, reducing surface runoff and mitigating flood risks. Sustainability: To enhance groundwater recharge and promote sustainable water use practices. Space Optimization: To design a solution that maximizes land use by placing the infiltration system underground, allowing the surface area to be utilized for other purposes

Solution: Flo-Vault Modules Our Flo-Vault® system was chosen for this project due to its superior design and performance in stormwater management. Key features of the Flo-Vault® modules include:

High Storage Capacity: Each module is designed to store a significant volume of water, making it ideal for large-scale projects.
Structural Integrity: The modules are engineered to withstand substantial loads, ensuring durability and long term reliability.
Easy Installation: The modular design allows for quick and efficient installation, reducing construction time and costs.

1. Excavation: Preparing the site by excavating the area where the underground tank would be installed.

2. Module Assembly: Assembling the 4,859 Flo-Vault modules on site. The modular nature of the system facilitated a streamlined assembly process.

3. Connection to Stormwater Network: Integrating the Flo-Vault system with the existing stormwater infrastructure to enable ef ficient water capture and infiltration.

4. Backfilling and Surface Restoration: Backfilling the area and restoring the surface to its original condition, allowing it to be used for other purposes

Results: The successful implementation of the Flo-Vault® underground infiltration tank at Taylors Beach delivered several notable outcomes:

Enhanced Stormwater Management: The system effectively manages stormwater, reducing the risk of flooding and promoting groundwater recharge.
Sustainable Solution: The project supports sustainable water management practices by facilitating the infiltration of stormwater into the ground.
Efficient Use of Space: The underground installation allows the surface area to be used for other developments, optimizing land use
