Find out moreYou'll be pleased to find this Brett Martin StormCrate55 can be used in stormwater retention, attenuation and infiltration applications. Designed to be easily stacked together, they will create a below-ground stormwater holding tank or allow stormwater infiltration into the ground around them.
During heavy rainfall, the void created by the crates will be filled up with rainwater. If the crates are used for attenuation, the water will drain away slowly into the drainage system. However, if you are using them for infiltration, the water will slowly soak away into the groundwater table.
With a load-bearing strength of 562kN per m² and integrated inlets and outlets, this StromCrate55 is durable and practical. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, including landscaped areas, pedestrianised areas, public open spaces, playgrounds, parking areas, driveways and access areas.
Please note:
Question:
HI, can this crate be used in shallow applications, so with approx 300m of coverage over them?
Answer:
The Brett Martin Cellular Storm Water Crate is designed to be highly durable and has a load-bearing strength of 55 tonnes. However, the exact depth of coverage that it can support would depend on a variety of factors including the type of soil, the type of traffic it will be subjected to, and the specific installation method. If you're considering a shallow application of approximately 300mm, I would recommend taking a closer look at the product's technical data sheet and brochure. These documents can provide more detailed insights about the product's capabilities and the recommended installation practices. You can find the technical data sheet here: Storm Water Crate Data Sheet and the brochure here: Storm Water Crate Brochure. If you're still unsure, it might be best to consult with a civil engineer or contact our technical team for further guidance.
Question:
What cover on the crates would i need t for a tarmaced house drive way?
Answer:
For a tarmaced house driveway, you would want to use a cover that matches the load-bearing strength of the Brett Martin Cellular Storm Water Crate. This product has a load-bearing strength of 55 tonnes, which is more than sufficient for regular residential vehicle traffic. However, the specific cover you would need can depend on various factors such as the exact usage of your driveway and local regulations. I would recommend checking with a local contractor or your city's building department to make sure you choose a suitable cover. For more details about the storm water crate, you can refer to the Data Sheet and the Brochure.
Question:
Do you need to fill the Storm Crate 55 boxes with clean stone.?
Answer:
No, the crates are wrapped with non woven geotextile to create an empty void for the crates to fill with water.
