Shower pans are also sometimes referred to as shower bases. But shower bases most commonly refer to the substructure underneath the shower floor, usually made of cement or mortar, that helps channel water into the drain and protects the surrounding shower alcove. Shower pans are the acrylic or composite insert installed on top of that substructure.

There are a number of things that individual residents can do to assist in reducing damage from major storms: -Clean or clear any drainage systems on your property. Particularly take a close look at landscaping materials. Is there material such as bark, leaves, mulch, etc. that could wash into a yard drain? Are the yard drains clean and free from silt and mud? It doesnt’t take much debris to render the typical yard drain system useless.

CONT

The principal purpose of yard and area drains is to carry off rain water as rapidly as it falls. ... Where they must discharge into a sewer, ... they should be trapped with a deep-seal trap ....

OBS

Compare with "area drain" and "floor drain".

Les formes des cuvettes réceptrices des eaux des terrasses et la disposition de leurs grilles ou crapaudines jouent, comme les dispositions des siphons ou entrées d'eau de cours, un rôle non négligeable dans la rapidité d'évacuation des eaux pluviales.

CONT

Siphon de cour en fonte à panier [...] Des siphons de gros diamètres, généralement en fonte, avec grilles et paniers en tôle perforée ou fils galvanisés, pour arrêter graviers et débris, sont placés dans les sols des cours ou des sous-sols pour recueillir les eaux pluviales et les eaux de lavage et de vidange.

  • Building Ventilation
  • Radioactive Contamination
CONT

Active soil depressurization has been found to be the most effective and reliableradon reduction technique in existing homes... This method involves installing a vent pipe through the basement floor slab... or connecting it to the foundation drain tiles through the sump. A fan that runs continuously is connected to the vent pipe. This reverses the air pressure difference between the house and soil, reducing concentrations of soil gas, including radon, next to the foundation.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Ventilation (Construction)
  • Pollution par radioactivité
CONT

Dans les maisons déjà construites, la dépressurisation active du sol s’est révélée être la meilleure technique de réduction du radon par son efficacité et sa fiabilité. [...] Il faut installer un tuyau d’évacuation qui traverse la dalle de plancher [...] ou le relier au tuyau de drainage périmétrique en passant par le puisard. On adjoint au tuyau d’évacuation un ventilateur qui fonctionne en permanence. En inversant la différence entre la pression à l’intérieur de la maison et celle du sol, cette technique permet de réduire les concentrations de gaz souterrains, dont le radon, autour des fondations.

Subject field(s)
  • Waste Management
  • Nuclear Waste Materials
CONT

Different disposal modules are used in some places for specific purposes. Pits are used for disposal of bulky, non-compactible wastes such as tanks, piping and large items of equipment. As the pit is filled, the disposed wastes are backfilled and covered with soil or concrete. Other disposal modules, such as lined shallow wells and shafts, may be provided with engineered barriers ....

CONT

The concept [burying the waste deep underground in the Canadian Shield] isolates used fuel from the environment using a series of natural as well as manmade barriers. Used nuclear fuel bundles would be contained in vaults 500 to 1,000 metres below ground. These vaults would consist of a network of tunnels and disposal rooms about 2 kilometres by 2 kilometres that could hold 191,000 tonnes of used fuel.

CONT

Typically, each [shallow land burial] trench has a sloping floor cut into the natural soil and a French drain of gravel down one of the long sides. The trench bottom is covered with a foot or two of sand to allow water to flow freely into the French drain, especially when the trench is open during operations. Sampling pipes or tubes are placed against the trench wall, with their lower ends in the French drain, when the trench is dug. Monitoring of each disposal unit(engineered trench) is accomplished by sampling any water found in the French drain through these tubes and analyzing its contents.

CONT

... the aboveground vault is a large steel-reinforced concrete structure with vertical access (through an open top) for placement of the waste. Within each structure there are numerous disposal units. Each disposal unit is sealed when filled to capacity. Individual units are sized to accommodate waste deliveries for about 1 to 2 weeks.

CONT

C'est l'association des propriétés cumulées du déchet, de sa matrice d'enrobage ou de blocage et, dans certaines conditions, de l'enveloppe des colis et des éléments constitutifs des modules de stockage (plates-formes et alvéoles), qui constitue le premier système de barrières d'isolement des déchets.

CONT

Pour les déchets d'activité moyenne, des monolithes de béton peuvent être obtenus à partir de tranchées bétonnées dans lesquelles on dispose les déchets et qui sont ensuite obturées par injection d'un coulis de ciment. Pour les déchets de faible activité, on peut constituer un tumulus sur des aires aménagées, planes, bétonnées et drainées. La figure 18 montre schématiquement l'exemple d'un stockage mixte tumulus sur monolithe. On y voit le réseau de canalisations enterrées qui ceinture chaque module de stockage et qui est destiné à contrôler l'efficacité des barrières et en particulier de la couche argileuse. [...] Les tumulus comprennent les blocs de béton en rangées de 5 m de haut constituant des cellules de 10 m X 30 m.

CONT

Monitoring wells should effectively achieve one or more of the following objectives: Provide access to the groundwater system for collection of water samples ... Measure the hydraulic head at a specific location in the groundwater flow system ... Provide access for conducting tests or collecting information necessary to characterize the aquifer materials or their hydrologic properties.

OBS

Figure 6. 1 illustrates a typical open disposal trench at the Barnwell facility. The trench floor is sloped slightly and covered with a layer of sand to facilitate collection of percolating water in a French drain. A number of pipes allow any water that may collect in the French drain to be removed and analyzed. Presently waste, primarily in boxes, drums and cask liners, is stacked neatly in the trench... As the level of the waste reaches the design level, 2 m below grade, a layer of dry soil is added and allowed to filter down between the waste containers. When a trench is filled, it is covered with a cap of at least 0. 6 m of compacted native clay, followed by at least 0. 9 m of soil. The cap is graded to shed water and seeded with grass. The sump in each trench is monitored for at least 5 years and any subsidence in the cap is filled to maintain its water-shedding ability. Monitoring wells at the perimeter of the facility have not detected migration of nuclides after more than 15 years of operation.
