Flood Barrier Research and Development.

The flood barrier developed by StormMeister® to meet the challenge was the Rapid Assembly Flood Barrier. A substantial flood barrier more than able to protect against floodwater, impact by floating debris, and as the name suggests, quick, simple and easy to deploy. The Rapid Assembly Flood Barrier was tested to PAS 1188 600 mm, the industry standard, and more recently has been tested to a simulated flood height of 1.8 metres, as required for the flood barriers for two new hotel developments in Paignton, Devon.

Flood Barriers, the Challenge

StormMeister® was approached by a corporate customer and set the task of designing a flood defence barrier for rapid deployment. Many flood barriers already on the market were not easy to deploy, some requiring grub screws, spanner or wrenches for assembly. The challenge was to develop a flood barrier which as well as providing effective flood and impact protection, was quick, simple and easy to deploy.

Flood Barrier Features & Benefits

  • Flood Protection: The Rapid Assembly Flood Barrier has been tested in accordance with PAS 1188 to 600 mm simulated flood height. More recently further testing of the flood barrier to a maximum simulated flood height of 1.8m.
  • Impact resistance: A flood barrier with high impact resistance was required, to withstand floodwater AND withstand collision by floating debris. Our Rapid Assembly Flood Barrier meets both requirements.
  • User Friendly: As the name suggests the StormMeister® Rapid Assembly Flood Barrier is easy assemble and easy to disassemble. Typically, assembly from storage racks to full flood barrier in as little as two minutes!
  • Nothing to Lose: Unlike other flood barriers there are NO grub screws, spanners or wrenches required.
  • Sustainability: A flood barrier that when properly stored can be used time and time again over many years.
  • Security: Lockable options available, including lockable flood barrier containers for outside storage.
  • Height Options:  Flood barrier height comes in multiples of 200 mm to a maximum of 1.8m.
  • Bespoke Finishes: All StormMeister® Rapid Assembly Flood Barriers can be colour finished to any RAL Classic colour.
  • Type Testing: For specific projects we can type test flood barrier configurations to a maximum width of 4.6m in our large testing tank.

Technical Information

Aluminium side channels are fixed permanently to the property in front or inside of any existing opening. Flood barrier sections come in multiples of 200 mm as shown in the photographs above and below, giving a flood barrier height range of 200 mm to 1800 mm. As shown in the photographs above, wide flood barriers can be divided into manageable sections by using removable centre posts. StormMeister® Rapid Assembly Flood Barriers are employed extensively to protect residential and commercial properties throughout the UK and worldwide.
