Industrial Flood Barrier: Flexible, Easy-to-Install, and Efficient Solution for Large-Scale Flood Protection

Geodesign's Industrial Flood Barrier is a highly effective solution for protecting large areas from flooding in a short amount of time. Available in four different models - with dam heights of 121 cm, 101 cm, 81 cm, and 61 cm - the Industrial flood barrier makes it easy  to create a customised solution following the topography of any site.

The Industrial Flood Barrier consists of two main metal components: a barrier support and a metal sheet covered with a plastic membrane. This unique design enables fast installation without the need for tools, heavy equipment, or a large workforce. The barrier's ingenious simplicity has made it a favourite among government entities for its logistical advantages.

Our Industrial series is designed for convenience and efficiency, offering compact storage with all necessary components for a 50-meter linear length optimised into one sturdy, stackable metal crate. This streamlined approach allows for easy transport and deployment – an ideal solution for large-scale flood protection.

FM ANSI 2510-2020 Certified: Lightweight design, yet stable through adversity.

Our Industrial flood barrier is engineered with lightweight components, allowing for quick and efficient setup, transport, and storage without compromising functionality. Despite its lightweight design, this barrier has a high safety margin and is built to withstand strong currents, high water pressure, and additional loads such as waves and floating debris colliding with it at high speeds.

To ensure its reliability, our flood barrier was rigorously tested at the US Army Corps of Engineers Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory in Vicksburg, MS. The tests were conducted in accordance with the FM ANSI 2510-2020 standard and demonstrated the barrier's capability to withstand the most challenging flood conditions.

Industrial Specially Designed Modules_0005_Adjustable section
fill-1

Adjustable section

To create an adjustable section with the Industrial Flood Barrier, begin by laying the metal sheet over the desired section that is less than one meter. Fix one side of the plate in the usual way, and allow the other side to rest on top of the mount button. Next, let the bottom of the panel rest in the slot located by the toe of the metal support. This will ensure that the panel remains securely in position. With these steps, you can create an adjustable section that can be tailored to your specific needs and the unique challenges of your project.

Industrial Specially Designed Modules_0004_Uneven Ground
fill-1

Uneven ground

To handle sudden shifts in level, such as curbs, steps, or uneven ground, start by placing the sloping beams of the A-frames aligned and their sides flush against each other. Then, clamp together the front beams to ensure that they remain securely in place. Once the A-frames are properly aligned, you can continue building the barrier on the new level. With this technique, you can easily navigate obstacles and uneven terrain to create a sturdy and reliable barrier that meets the specific needs of your project.

Industrial Specially Designed Modules_0003_Corners

Attachment to walls

To achieve a secure fit, adjust the length of the barrier so that it aligns flush against the wall. To attach the barrier safely to a vertical foundation or structure and minimize seepage, we recommend using our wall connection kit. This kit is designed to facilitate a reliable connection between the barrier and the foundation or structure. By utilizing our wall connection kit, you can ensure that your barrier is firmly anchored and capable of providing optimal protection against potential hazards.

Industrial Specially Designed Modules_0001_Compatibility
group-3

Compatibility

The Industrial Flood Barrier is not only compatible with other models within the same product family, but it can also be seamlessly integrated with the taller Heavy-Duty series. This compatibility allows for increased flexibility and adaptability in designing flood protection systems, making it easier to customize solutions that are tailored to your specific needs and requirements. The Industrial Flood Barrier offers a versatile and reliable solution for protecting your property and assets from flood damage.

Industrial Specially Designed Modules_0000_Bends
fill-2

Bends

Thanks to the flexibility of its modular structure and thin steel panel, the Industrial Flood Barrier enables larger bends with a 90-degree turn radius of 10 meter using only straight sections. This feature makes it easier to design custom flood protection systems that can adapt to the layout of your property and minimize the need for additional components or complex installations.

Four simple steps. One refined solution.

Geodesign's Industrial Flood Barrier has been expertly designed and engineered for quick installation without the need for heavy equipment, tools, or a large workforce. This innovative steel barrier has become a top choice for government entities due to its logistical advantages and unparalleled simplicity.

Industrial Setup_0000_Step 1

Step 1. Place, unfold and lock the metal supports

'To set up the barrier, begin by placing the supports along the intended barrier line, spaced at 1 meter intervals. Then, fold up each support by lifting up the front beam and unfolding the support beam. After fully extending the support beam, locate the snap lock at the bottom of the support beam and use it to lock the support in an upright position with the bottom beam. This will help ensure the barrier's integrity before the water rises and provide stability.

Industrial Setup_0001_Step 2

Step 2. Mount the metal sheets

Hang the panels between the frames by sliding the cutout over the protruding mount knobs on the supports and overlapping the neighboring panels.

Industrial Setup_0002_Step 3

Step 3. Roll out the membrane

To install the membrane, roll it out along the barrier and secure it in place using panel clips at the top of the barrier. Then, attach a chain to the outer edge of the membrane on the ground and fasten it securely with cable ties.

Industrial Setup_0003_Step 4

Step 4. Self anchored with water

Allow the flood water to rise onto the barrier to generate the necessary pressure to self-anchor the system. This process ensures that the barrier is firmly secured in place and can withstand the pressure of rising water levels.
