Podium Decks
Podium decks are structures designed to increase usable space, whilst helping manage the conveyance and reuse of rainwater. Used in conjunction with vegetation, they can contribute to creating amenity; rooftop bars and cafés, green areas above car parks and so on. Polypipe surface water run-off source control systems are designed to provide high volume shallow attenuation structures at both roof and podium levels of a building. The systems are designed to capture, treat, store and return surface water run-off to the underground drainage system in accordance with the Environment Agency prescribed site outfall rate – and can attenuate and reuse the rainwater for irrigation, whilst providing an alternative to using potable water.
