Drainage solutions at BRASILIA Airport

ULMA has installed more than 600 ml of drainage channels model F300 at Brasilia International Airport.

It is worth pointing out that the drainage system is a key factor at an Airport, both because of its importance for evaluating the water which may remain on the runways as well as to ensure the resistances which must be borne by the channel under heavy loads.

Consorcia Helvix constructora has taken on the project and it has decided to trust ULMA trench drains, essentially owing to a proposal whereby the installation of the channels was carried out in a shorter space of time and at a more competitive price.

Brasilia International Airport boasts a terminal capable of handling more than 9 million passengers per year and it is one of the most modern airports in Brazil. It has a shopping centre with 136 business premises. It is the third largest airport in Brazil in terms of movement, behind the two main airports of São Paulo, the Congonhas Airport and the Guarulhos International Airport.
