What to do under heavy flood?

You may have seen such a scene: a rainstorm suddenly struck, and the streets of the city were quickly flooded. The current was turbulent, which destroyed many flood control facilities and caused huge losses to people's lives and property.

You may have also seen such a scene: an ordinary plastic flood barrier can act like a sturdy wall, blocking the impact of floods and protecting people's safety. How was this achieved? What kind of design is this? Today, let's uncover the secret of this magical plastic board and see how it responds to the challenges of floods.

1、 The principle of ABS flood barrier: using water pressure and friction force

The name of this ABS flood barrier is flood control barrier, which is a temporary flood control facility that can stand alone. It is made of ABS plastic, weighing about 4.1 kilograms per piece, measuring about 70 centimeters in length, 52 centimeters in width, and 2 centimeters in thickness. It can be spliced into any length of flood control wall.

The characteristic of ABS flood barrier is that it does not require any fixed support, as long as it is placed on a relatively flat ground, it can form a stable flood control barrier. This is because the design of flood control boards utilizes the principles of water pressure and friction.

When the flood hits the flood control board, a high-pressure zone will be formed in front of the flood control barrier, and a low-pressure zone will be formed behind the flood barrier, which will create a backward water pressure difference and subject the flood prevention barrier to a backward water pressure. At the same time, a frictional force is generated between the bottom of the flood control board and the ground, causing the flood control board to experience a forward frictional force.

When the water pressure and friction reach equilibrium, the flood barrierwill remain stable and will not be knocked over. The bottom of the ABS flood barrier also has some concave and convex patterns, which can increase the friction coefficient with the ground and improve the stability of the flood control board. There are also some grooves on the top of the flood control barrier, which can allow floods to flow along the grooves and reduce the impact of floods on the flood control barrier.

2、 The advantages of ABS flood barrier: lightweight, fast, and economical!

Compared with traditional flood control products such as sandbags, cement walls, steel plates, etc., flood control barriers have many advantages, mainly reflected in the following aspects.

The ABS flood barrier is lightweight, weighing only 4.1 kilograms per piece, and can be easily transported by one person without the need for any mechanical equipment or fixed objects. It can be deployed anytime and anywhere, making it very suitable for responding to sudden flood disasters.

Flood barriers are fast and each piece is only 70 centimeters long, which can be spliced into any length of flood control wall. One person can install a 10 meter long flood control barrier in one minute, saving a lot of time and manpower compared to traditional flood control products such as sandbags, and can effectively block the invasion of floods in a timely manner.

And ABS flood barrier is economical, costing only USD40 to USD80 per piece, much cheaper than traditional flood control facilities such as cement walls and steel plates. Moreover, flood barriers can be reused without causing waste of resources or pollution to the environment, making them an environmentally friendly flood control facility.

3、 The effect of ABS flood barrier: blocking floods up to 100cm high

Although the design of the ABS flood barrier is simple, its effect is very significant, which can block floods up to 100 centimeters high and protect the safety of many people and property.

According to reports,ABS flood barriers have been widely used in many countries and regions, such as Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, India, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, etc., with cases of using flood control barrier.

For example, in November 2023, Japan was hit by a rare typhoon and rainstorm, which caused serious flood disasters. The flood control facilities in many places were destroyed, but some places used flood barriers, which successfully withstood the impact of the flood and saved people's lives and property. The effectiveness of ABS flood barrier has been highly praised and recognized by the local government and the public.

Summary:

ABS flood barrier is a clever flood control design that utilizes the principles of water pressure and friction to achieve the effect of a thin flood barrier being able to block floods without being washed over.

ABS flood barriers are not only lightweight, fast, and economical, but also have significant effects. They can block floods up to 100 cm high and are a very practical and environmentally friendly flood control facility. The design of flood control barrier also reflects human wisdom and creativity, providing a new approach and method for flood control and disaster relief.

What is the best anti-flood solution?

There are several effective anti-flood solutions that can be used to prevent flooding. Some of these solutions include:

1. Building flood barriers: This involves constructing walls or barriers to prevent water from entering homes or buildings. These could be ABS or Aluminum material.

2. Installing flood gates: Flood gates can be installed to control the flow of water and prevent flooding.

3. Creating green spaces: Green spaces such as parks and gardens can help absorb excess water and prevent flooding.

4. Building retention ponds: Retention ponds are designed to collect excess water and prevent flooding.

5. Using sandbags: Sandbags can be used to create temporary barriers to prevent water from entering homes or buildings.

And you may also choose Sguard Self-inflated flood bags to replace heavy sandbags. The Sguard inflatable flood bag is just 270g per piece and could absorb 20kgs water in about 3 minutes, it is very light and easy to take too and is good alternative to traditional heavy sandbags.

6. Elevating buildings: Elevating buildings can help prevent flooding in areas that are prone to floods.

7. Improving drainage systems: Improving drainage systems can help prevent flooding by allowing excess water to flow away from homes and buildings.

The best anti-flood solution depends on the specific situation and location. It is important to consult with experts to determine the most effective solution for your area.
