Le mot «tile», dans l'expression anglaise «tile hole», désigne un tuyau de drainage. Il s'agit donc ici de trous dans lesquels on enfouit des tuyaux de drainage en béton et que l'on obture à l'aide de couvercles de béton. Le terme français «trou de stockage» est un générique qui peut convenir s'il n'est pas nécessaire de préciser davantage le concept. 1, record 1, French, - trou%20de%20stockage
