PLACE Storm water Management - Shopping center at 10100 Place Viau, Saint-Léonard

For this shopping center manager, this project was a new challenge that Soleno could meet, thanks to the benefits of its HDPE advanced products for economical and sustainable storm water management.

READ MORE THE CONTEXT

The system was to be installed at a proper depth in rock and clay, with more than eight meters of embankment above the basins. It had to withstand normal traffic loads and had to be partially built in winter.

THE SOLUTION

Guy Trudeau, an engineer with Marchand Houle & Asso- ciates, chose the Stormchamber system without ground water replenishment, arranged as three retention systems (for a total retention capacity of 700 m) that can support a embankment height of 8 meters, a resistance four times higher than for injected polypropylene tanks, two Aqua- Swirl systems for storm water management that can be buried at a shallower depth, especially in rock, two linear wells (installed subsequently in July 2013), SolFlo Max pipes and flow regulators.

THE ADVANTAGES

Thanks to their light weight, their ease of installation and the savings they can generate on site, these innovative products are particularly suited to complex projects with multiple constraints (i.e. space and depth) and they allow project partners to add to their portfolio. The project manager, Magil Construction Corporation, had already had positive experiences in installing triple-wall HDPE sumps and was already in his second and third installation of Aqua-Swirl systems (AS-5). Frederick Groulx-Houde, with L.A. Hébert Ltd., illustrates: “We had to install several different products and complete the project in the cold and snow. Storm water management systems supplied by Soleno were, again, consistent with our expectations.”
