Additional Information WAVE TEST PERFORMED BY US ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS Water-Gates have gone through rigorous testing with the US Army Corps of Engineers which resulted in an FM Approval Certification. Testing also demonstrated that it was the only flood perimeter product tested that passed with no damage to the product itself, so no repairs were needed after use.
How to select the correct size & length of Water-Gate Key 2ft Clear path around Perimeter Skirt length based on height selected Measuring Line to determine Length Needed 1. Take into any considerations any obstructions of Water-Gate (pools, trees, sheds, etc.) 2. You will need a clear a path of at least 2ft (61cm) around the perimeter of the structure that is being protected. 5. Multiple pumps are required to pump rain & seepage water away from the back end of the Water-Gate. 6.
How To Determine Required Length Additional Length Needed to Create a Corner Height of Protection 31.5 26.5 20 (6.1) REMEMBER TO USE WATER PUMPS: Any water collecting between the building and the Water-Gate needs to be evacuated by pumps. Things that can affect the quantity of water behind the barriers are: SS Seepage rate of the barrier when full, approximately 0.5-0.
