Stormwater Trash Rack Design
The goal is to trap material on the outside of the structure where it can be easily removed.
Stormwater trash rack design. Plastic solutions of fers a full line of standard sizes and can also customize to fit your specific requirements. Trash racks gratings orifice plates flow control devices vacuum test plates cast in frame and grate assemblies and much more. These lightweight devices come in a variety of standard sizes but can also be custom fabricated to fit a wide variety of applications. Trash rack is a sturdy cage like stormwater filtration structure that keeps large debris and trash out of stormwater systems and waterways.
Trash racks and debris screens are used to prevent floating debris from clogging stormwater outlet control structures. Often featured on precast concrete outlet structures in stormwater retention and detention ponds trash racks play an essential role in water management systems. The principle goal is to trap material on the outside of the structure for easy removal. These aluminum structures play a critical role in protecting stormwater systems by preventing clogs that can cause avoidable flooding.
A trash rack is a fabricated steel component designed to block floating debris from entering stormwater and wastewater systems. Failure to keep a riser structure clean can greatly diminish the flow capacity possibly resulting in overtopping of the embankment. Trash racks will collect any debris in plain sight to allow for regular maintenance and removal as needed. A vailable in concrete grey and black.
Structural plasti c has a cellular core surrounded by integral skins forming a totally integrate d structure. A trash rack is steel structure used to prevent debris such as plastics sticks plants and animals from clogging the entrance to the stormwater and wastewater systems. They are used to prevent floating debris from clogging stormwater outlet control structures. Our trash racks are designed for efficient flow and successful screening of debris at inflow and outflow.
Plastic solutions inc offers two types of low flow screening devices the bmp trash rack and the debris cage which often specified by state dot s. Trash racks an d debris cages for storm water management basins and pond structures. Trash racks are fabricated from corrosion resistant aircraft grade aluminum alloy 6106 t6 using schedule 40 pipe construction.
