Versatile - Model OSD -Onsite Detention Tanks

Often referred to as on-site detention tanks, OSDs are now compulsory for new or recently-renovated constructions or developments. Put simply, on-site stormwater detention is a means of detaining the stormwater from your site to ensure all development areas can be safely controlled. If you’re in the construction industry, you have a duty of care to not only understand the use of OSDs, but their effective maintenance, too. Advancements in construction and therefore a removal of much of our natural landscapes mean there is now nowhere for rainwater to collect. Elsewhere, hard surfaces like pavements, roofs and site drainage mean an increase in the volume and speed of stormwater run-off. Of course, this is something of a cause for concern for land, company and home owners, due to the high risk of flooding.
