As residential and mixed-use developments across the UK come under growing pressure to manage surface water sustainably, Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDS) have become a standard requirement of the planning process. At the heart of many SUDS schemes sits a pond, basin or forebay and the way its banks are retained has a direct bearing on how well that feature performs over the lifetime of the development. Gabions have long been a preferred solution for this [...]
When it comes to civil engineering, water is often the greatest adversary. However, a recent project supported by Enviromesh proves that with the right engineering and high-quality materials, even the most challenging saturated environments can be tamed.
