Flood Control
International recently demonstrated the demountable flood barrier system and
flood gate at the Glucksman Gallery in Cork, Ireland.
The gallery flooded in 2009 and Flood Control International was contacted by the architects to work with them to design a flood defence that was in keeping with the architectural style of this iconic building.
The system
incorporates specially designed posts to fit in with the angled walls and a
lift-hinged floodgate which operates over a level threshold for disabled
access.
