Innovation:
As the prefabricated modular units were not designed for the installation of guttering there was no way of collecting the rainwater from the roofs. To avoid the water saturating the ground around the foundations, Benchmark designed and installed a clean stone filter drain around the perimeter with a bespoke catchment system on-top the foundations, below the units.
