The
AFTRAP consists of the interceptor unit, pilings
and diversion booms. A typical system consists
of the interceptor unit, 4-6 pilings, 2 rotating
tide slide tracks and 2 tile slides. The price
will vary according to the length and number
of parts and boom used. |
|
| Determine
the maximum water level variation, add 2 feet
and that's the length of track you need. The
boom needs to cross the stream on at least
a 60 degree angle from the outside edge. The
upstream piling is placed at the low water
line or wherever you can make it fit. The
short leg of boom goes from the nearshore
side of the intercepter to the nearshore low-water
line at least 25FT from the trap. The interceptor
will float in about 12" of water and
should be installed near enough to shore so
that a mobile crane or back hoe can reach
teh basket hoop easily. An open ton dump container
should be positioned along the shore to receive
the accumulated debris. |
