15、ntroductionEcological and sustainable rainwater management is an increasingly important subject for communities, designers and other agencies. Due to the increasing amount of impermeable surfaces being created by buildings and roads, rainwater falling in urban areas can have great difficulty in find
16、ing its way into the ground or to receiving surface water. This can cause flash flooding, water in basements and other life threatening situations.Rainwater harvesting, infiltration and decentralized retention of rainwater (attenuation), are examples of ecological and sustainable rainwater managemen
17、t. Excess water from rainwater harvesting systems should be infiltrated into the ground or released in a controlled manner into surface water bodies. Plastic geocellular systems, sometimes referred to as boxes, are a preferred solution for temporarily storing rainwater underground. These boxes can b
18、e stacked in layers to form underground storage reservoirs (e.g. tanks) able to store run-off from intensive rainfall falling over large surface areas. Plastic boxes have the advantage of being light and easy to install whilst providing a large capacity for storage relative to their overall volume.
19、Some boxes are strong enough to be installed under roads, parking areas and other landscape features. They can also be recycled very easily.This Technical Report contains guidance for installation procedures for thermoplastic infiltration and attenuation systems outside building structures, which sh
20、ould be completed in conjunction with product specific installation instructions.This Technical Report is a guidance document only. It provides a set of general guidelines which gives best practice for underground installation of thermoplastic infiltration and attenuation systems outside building st
21、ructures.This Technical Report includes recommendations for the reservoir surround and backfilling procedures but not road base and road sub-base details. Attention is drawn to any national regulations which may cover these or other aspects of installation.This Technical Report is intended to be use
22、d by local authorities, design engineers, installation contractors and manufacturers.In this Technical Report, much of the guidance is expressed as requirements, e.g. by use of “shall” or by instructions in the imperative. It is strongly recommended that these be followed whenever applicable.Other g
23、uidance is presented for consideration as a matter of judgement in each case, e.g. by use of “should”.4PD CEN/TR 17179:2018CEN/TR 17179:2018 (E)1 ScopeThis Technical Report is applicable to the installation of rainwater infiltration and storage/attenuation systems under gravity.This Technical Report
24、 covers installations including: reservoirs made by assembled cuboid shaped thermoplastic boxes; integral components; ancillary components (e.g. access provisions and connections); geotextiles and/or geomembranes; embedment and backfill.These systems are intended for underground use in landscape, pe
25、destrian or vehicular traffic areas and are used outside building structures.This Technical Report is only applicable to systems containing boxes to create a reservoir where the manufacturer has clearly stated in the installation instructions how the components should be assembled.This Technical Rep
26、ort is a guidance document. It provides a set of general guidelines which gives best practice for installation.NOTE 1 It is anticipated that additional recommendations and/or requirements (e.g. design, dimensioning and structural aspects) will be detailed in the relevant standards.NOTE 2 Attention i
27、s drawn to the need to comply with national or local regulations.2 Normative referencesThe following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document.

37、1 GeneralThermoplastics boxes and box components may be supplied with or without packaging.Attention is drawn to the need for consideration of personnel safety during the transport, handling and storage, especially in wet and cold weather conditions.5.2 Transportation of boxes and box componentsBox
38、and components should be inspected on delivery to ensure that they are marked appropriately and comply with the specified requirements.Any handling or transportation instructions from the manufacturer should be complied with.Products should be examined both on delivery and immediately prior to insta
39、llation to ensure that all components have been delivered and that all components are free from damage and in accordance with the relevant product standard.7PD CEN/TR 17179:2018CEN/TR 17179:2018 (E)Care should be taken to avoid positioning of boxes and components near to any exhaust systems or any o
40、ther potential contaminations such as diesel oil.When boxes and components require specific transportation practices, the manufacturer should notify the customer of the procedures to be used.NOTE Attention is drawn to the need to confirm to national and/or local transport regulations.5.3 HandlingWhe
41、n handling box and components, care should be taken to prevent damage.When box and components are to be handled individually, they should be lifted, lowered and carried in a controlled fashion and should never be thrown, dropped or dragged.When loading or unloading box and components with forklift e
42、quipment, only forklift trucks with smooth or suitably protected forks should be used. Care should be taken to ensure that forks do not impact box and components when lifting.The impact resistance of thermoplastics boxes is reduced at low temperatures; under these conditions, more care should be tak
43、en during handling. Where cold conditions are expected, the advice of the manufacturer should be sought.NOTE In general cold conditions are considered if temperatures are lower than 5 C.5.4 StorageAny storage instructions from the manufacturer and the requirements of the appropriate product standard
44、s shall be adhered to.All products should be stored in such a manner to keep them clean and avoid contamination or degradation.Excessive stacking heights should be avoided so that boxes and components in the lower part of the stacks are not overloaded and/or the stack becomes unstable. Stacks of box
45、es should not be placed close to open excavations. Strapping bands should not cause damage or deformation of the boxes or components.Stack the boxes on reasonably flat surfaces free from sharp objects, stones or projections in order to avoid localized deformation or damage to the products.Boxes and
46、components should be stored on supports in very cold weather to avoid freezing to the ground.Storage in direct sunlight for long periods and/or high temperatures can affect the performance of the products and should be avoided.The fading of the colour caused by outside storage does not affect the me
47、chanical properties of products.If boxes, box components and ancillary components are supplied in packaging, the restraints and/or packaging should be removed as late as possible prior to installation.6 Installation6.1 Behaviour of reservoirsThere are several methods of structural design (see nation
48、al standards and guidance) that are used to calculate the long-term performance of reservoirs.8 PD CEN/TR 17179:2018CEN/TR 17179:2018 (E)The use of the installation procedures detailed in this Technical Report and the manufactures instructions together with the structural design methods will ensure
49、an optimal performance of the reservoirs.In general, vehicular traffic is not allowed on unpaved surfaces in the zone of influence of the reservoir unless calculations prove otherwise.6.2 Design considerations6.2.1 GeneralIt is essential to determine the soil conditions that relate to excavation construction and reservoir installation prior to construction; the native soil and the backfill material should be classified in accordance with Annex A. The classification is then used to choose a suitable type of installation in accordance with 6.2.2.The classi
