Storm Capture Module system provides a low-profile, easy to install system for storage, infiltration or reuse. Advantages include:
• Easy to install modules for fast erection
• Ideally suited for low-profile applications under parking areas
• Designed for traffic loading conditions
• Can be installed with existing site-work equipment
• Ideal for Low Impact Development (LID)
High Performance
Storm Capture modules provide low initial and life cycle costs and are designed for maintainability and longevity.
ECONOMICAL
• Low initial cost – less materials
• More capacity – less footprint
• Lowest life cycle and service costs
MAINTAINABLE
• Designed for maintenance not replacement
• Optional direct module access
STRUCTURAL CONCRETE = quality, value, performance
• Vehicular traffic loading design
• Not reliant on adjacent backfill
DURABLE
• Time tested service life of concrete
• No strength loss, creep or deflection
EFFICIENT
• Maximum void space – cumulative capacity
• Maximum conveyance – no lateral backfill restriction |

How Our Module System Works
Our Storm Capture Module system provides a low-profile, easy to install system that can be laid out in a variety of patterns to accommodate your site. Modules can be a stand-alone stormwater infiltration BMP or part of a total stormwater management or rainwater harvesting system.
Installation
• The module design relies on a simple prepared foundation of free draining compacted aggregate or precast concrete. Foundations are designed for structure type and bearing capacity.
• Stormwater is received with piping from adjacent structures, by capturing runoff through an integral surface inlet or through permeable pavement systems.
• Standard design modules allow for 6” – 4’ of cover. Design factors can apply to increase the maximum cover.
Pavement/Surface Treatments
• A composite concrete slab can be poured directly on the modules providing a concrete driving surface.
• Permeable or standard Oldcastle paver systems can provide a cost effective and appealing driving surface
• Typical pavement section of aggregate and asphalt with minimal thicknesses.
Function
• SC modules provide maximum storage and detention, assisting in controlling site runoff and providing natural infiltration.
• Design can incorporate an impermeable bottom for detention and attenuation.
• Individual modules provide 100% internal void space, no granular material to clog or slow internal water conveyance.
• Flow ports or windows are strategically placed to provide maximum flow rates between adjacent units.
Maintenance
• Manhole or module to module access
• Maintenance modules included
• Optional removable top slab sections for machine access
