GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION

  • Education City is the flagship development of Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development. It is an international hub for innovative research, academia and social development. ​
  • WT Burden supplied StormTech SC740 stormwater soakaway chambers  for the Education City R&D Centre in Qatar.
  • The drainage specification called for 575m3 of stormwater attenuation to be provided.
  • StormTech was selected by the contractor as the best product to meet the needs of the project.
  • StormTech’s unique design features meant it was able to satisfy these requirements and provide the assurances necessary under the engineers and contractors PI for the scheme

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

  • The chambers were tested for high temperature ground conditions.
  • The chambers were approved by ASTAD
  • Key considerations for the engineer were to provide a fully trafficable  system with a design life in excess of 50 years, which met the dead and live loading standards outlined in current best-practice codes 
  • The tank must be maintainable to ensure that the tank volume does not reduce over time as a result of silt build-up

DESIGN STANDARDS

  • Materials used had to comply with the relevant local construction standards.
