Cold Water Storage (CWS)

GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION

LOCATION - Dublin City Project - Dublin Landings Block 3
​INDUSTRY - Residential Housing
​PRODUCT - Insulated Sectional water tanks

• Installation of a selection of Balmoral Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) water tanks.
• Tanks sizes and capacities:​

 

2.0 x 1.0 x 2.0m = 4.0m3
2.0 x 2.0 x 2.0m = 8.0m3
4.0 x 5.0 x 2.5m = 50.0m3

• Indoor installation in a basement tank room location.
• Tanks required internal & external ladders, dividers, drip trays and “Format 30” insulation.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

• Quick Installation - the Dublin City Project had a strict timing schedule.  The CubicM3 installation team co-ordinated with the site to ensure that installation ran smoothly and the project was delivered for the client within the required timeframe. 
• Pre-assembled for a confined space - GRP tanks are constructed from 1.0 x 1.0m sections and smaller sized panels as required. For this project, installation within a confined tank room was achievable because the panels could be transported to site pre-assembled.
• CubicM3 employed a similar method for supplying the drip trays. The drip trays are prepared and assembled by our team and then brought to site in sections.  Each section is then welded together.
• The CWS GRP tanks are now being used to store cold water, mains water and rainwater. 
• Highest quality standards - all materials used in the production and assembly of Balmoral GRP tanks are rigorously tested for potable water compatibility. This includes long term material performance and mechanical properties, non-metallic components, adhesives, etc. Combined, these analyses form the basis of the company’s extensive QC procedures.
• Bespoke design - the design of each sectional tank panel is modelled using Balmoral Tanks' FEA software. This allows fine detail to be thoroughly investigated and improved before proceeding to mouldmaking and production.
• This installation was part of a larger residential housing project for CubicM3 that has also involved Dublin Landings Blocks 4 & 5.
