Rail

Ideally suited to under-rail designs and applications, ADS N12 Dual-Wall Corrugated HDPE pipes and fittings have been approved for use by numerous Australian rail authorities and government agencies.

These include Metro Trains Melbourne (MTM), V/Line, Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC), Aurizon, Queensland Rail (QR), RailCorp, Transport for NSW (TfNSW) and CityRail.

ADS Pipes has undergone rigorous independent testing and has been found to perform extremely well in rail corridor applications including:

• duplications
• intertrack and undertrack upgrades such as level crossings
• sub-soil drainage and carrier pipe
• perforated 100mm to 600mm applications

ADS N12 Dual-Wall Corrugated HDPE Pipe has the following under-rail friendly properties:

• comes in sizes from 100mm to 1500mm inside diameter (ID)
• can be supplied in standard and slotted variants
• pipe is manufactured with properties in accordance with AS/NZS 2566.1, Buried Flexible Pipelines – Part 1 Structural Design

Raingardens

Raingardens are self-watering and low maintenance gardens.  They capture stormwater that runs off hard surfaces after it rains and clean the water before it is reused or released into creeks, rivers and waterways

How does raingarden work?

Beneath the raingarden are layers of sandy soil. This helps to clean the water and slows the rate of stormwater entering our rivers and creeks. The layers also remove pollution, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, fertilisers, dust, leaves and animal droppings, which are washed off these hard surfaces.

Over time particles can clog the raingarden. A layer of spherical particles of diameter D will prevent the passage of spherical particles of diameter D/6. Once this layer forms, spherical particles of D/36 are retained.

To prevent blocking use StormTech chambers with an Isolator Row™ inside the raingarden. An overflow bypass will allow water to continue entering the soil. Isolator rows can be jetted clean via access from the surface. Jetting removes the layers of retained particles that clog.

The plants in raingardens help to further filter out pollution that would otherwise end up in our rivers and creeks.

By capturing stormwater, raingardens can be self watering and are therefore easier to maintain. They use less drinking water than regular gardens.

Raingardens are rapidly becoming an essential addition to any sustainable garden design, thanks largely to the fact that they have real benefits to the environment and the health of local rivers and creeks.

StormTech chambers are ideal for raingarden applications. One of the key advantages of the StormTech chamber system is design flexibility. StormTech chambers can be configured into beds or trenches, in centralised or decentralised layouts to fit on nearly any site.

We can provide oil separators and gross pollutant traps to meet your raingarden requirements.  This will remove 80 per cent of TSS, 45 per cent of Nitrogen and 45 per cent of Phosphorous and achieve Council specifications.

Stormwater Reuse

Stormwater harvesting (retention) for reuse in irrigation and toilet flushing applications can be achieved using StormTech chambers in a lined excavation. StormTech systems can also combine retention and detention to achieve your water storage requirements.

StormTech and other  products such as HDPE pipes and fittings are also well suited to stormwater reuse.

SPEL Stormwater products are used extensively in raingarden projects. We are proud to be engaged in stormwater reuse projects that benefit the environment and the local community.
