The challenge of the project: 2.000 HGVs pass over daily.
Deciding the best drainage solution for a fuel station where 80 HGVs pass every hour, (2,000 daily, 60,000 monthly, more than 720,000 a year), is a huge responsibility.
This site is the CNG fuel station on Avonmounth. It is the world's largest public access biomethane refuelling station, serving the UK’s busiest freight routes.
What can be resistant and tough enough to support the weight of 80 HGVs passing each hour?
To make that decision, it is necessary to taken into account all the necessary parameters: location, rainfall, surface slope, weight to be borne by the grating (load type), and length of the drainage line.
ULMA study each project and carry out the necessary hydraulic calculations, with their multi-platform software solution.
So they can recommend the best drainage system, optimised in terms of cost and drainage capacity.
With their help, the client receives a detailed report with references and dimensions of the necessary channels, sheet of water, filling percentages, water flows and speeds in each of the project lines.
In a word, all the necessary data for the validation of the drainage system, in 48h hours. Save time and money on your next projects with the guarantee of ULMA’s technical team.

The final drainage solution has been. The CIVIL F family channels: Why?
ULMA Civil F channels are designed for heavy traffic areas and especially for sections where the grating is subject to large axial forces due to the manoeuvring and braking of vehicles. Another benefit of this family is the possibility to incorporate a continuous 2.5% slope, which can resolve the slope limitation that some areas have.
Do you need a drainage solution for a fuel stations, industrial areas, motorways, ports, car parks, shopping centers...?
You name it, ULMA can help you.
