Fast
- 320m of 60cm in diameter deployed by 8 people in 1h30
- 10m element air-filled and in position in less than 3 minutes
Sequential
- determine where the flood waters should be running to
- install the bottom BEAVER element first (sleeve facing downhill)
- end-to-end butting of BEAVER elements going uphill
Pre-positioning
- On flood alert, deploy BEAVER elements only filled with air. On flood confirmation, move them into place and fill them with water.
Flexibility
- BEAVER System is flexible because the elements/tubes can be endlessly connected. Makes standardisation possible.
