This feasibility study for the design of reservoirs in Morocco involved several typical solutions: buried and surface reservoirs both, of either circular or rectangular section, and with capacities for 500 m3, 1.000 m3, 2.000 m3, 2.500 m3 and 5.000 m3. The structural solution to all possibilities was to use reinforced concrete, combining retaining and structural walls and also inner columns. The main constraint was […]

Water supply system for the villages of Vestiaria, Bárrio and Cela — Portugal
Infrastructures
The project consists of a pre-existing lift station, main pressurised water supply system, reservoirs and a gravity feeder pipe between the reservoirs. The aim of this facility is to direct the municipal water supply from the Castelo lift station to Cela Nova, where a municipal reservoir will distribute water to the towns mentioned.
The system will serve 10.200 inhabitants; the feeder pipes are 7.490 m […]

Sewerage system from Carris to Carvalhal de Turquel — Portugal
Infrastructures, Other Projects
This study is intended not only to provide a domestic residual water supply system to the population, but also to significantly promote the depollution of the Alcôa river. Depollution of this river is vital since most of the water collection for county consumption is located at the its spring. The system was divided into three parts: System 1 includes the villages of Carris, Baldio […]
