GOOD TO KNOW

Surface Water Drainage – SuDS

The principle of SuDS is manage the rate, volume and water quality of run-off from a site to reduce the risk of flooding and pollution whilst improving bio-diversity.

WCI provides innovative, cost-effective SuDS designs that balance the commercial requirements of a development with bio-diversity and social utility.

Foul Drainage Design

This involves creating a system of pipes and other components to safely and efficiently remove wastewater (foul water) from buildings to a public sewer or treatment facility.

Key aspects of design include proper sizing and gradients, consideration of soil type and topography, and adherence to relevant regulations and standards. This involves creating a system of pipes and other components to safely and efficiently remove wastewater (foul water) from buildings to a public sewer or treatment facility.

THE WCI DIFFERENCE

WCI is well known for our knowledge of wastewater engineering. Our foul drainage strategies encompass solutions featuring mains connections and diversions, private treatment, pumping stations, inverted siphons and network design and optimisation.
