Passive Horizontal rising barriers

Top of underground parking

Commercial setting

Raised for cleaning & inspection

Passive Vertical Rising Barriers

Resting Position

In non-flood conditions, all operational parts of the barrier are concealed in the underground basin.

Deploying

When floodwater rises to within a predetermined level below flood level, the basin housing the floating wall starts to fill up through an inlet pipe from the adjacent service pit.

Fully Deployed

The flood wall floats and rises. When the basin is totally filled, the angled support block will lock the barrier into position making it watertight.
