Titan StormSmart™ Tank – Sustainable Stormwater Storage in Action

Titan Solution

Titan Environmental Containment collaborated closely with Stantec, EMCO, and the contractor to refine the design and deliver a system tailored to the project’s needs. Titan revised the system layout to ensure constructability and future expansion
feasibility, while also proposing catch basin structures that provided improved inspection and maintenance access.

To address footprint and labour demands, Titan implemented its StormSmart™ detention system, engineered with a 30mil LLDPE impermeable liner that fully wrapped the tank to prevent infiltration into surrounding soils and ensure controlled discharge through the outlet.

Thesystem also incorporated non-woven geotextiles and prefabricated pipe
boots, which streamlined installation and reduced time on site.

A Titan technical representative was present throughout construction to  provide oversight, troubleshoot potential issues, and maintain quality control. Following completion, Titan supplied detailed maintenance manuals and ensured accessible inspection ports were in place so the system could be effectively managed over its lifecycle. With a storage capacity of 1,220 m³, a 1.2 m cross-section height, and an HS-25 load rating capable of supporting vehicular traffic, the system exceeded the City’s performance and structural requirements. 

StormSmart™ is a modular underground system designed for stormwater infiltration, retention, and detention with high load capacity and minimal footprint. Its efficient design reduces installation materials and costs while integrating seamlessly beneath urban infrastructure.

Achievement

The Shannon Lake Road project was completed on schedule and delivered significant value to the
community and stakeholders. Titan’s StormSmart™ system provided 1,220 m³ of stormwater storage,
reduced flood risk, and safeguarded surrounding soils and sensitive areas, while delivering notable cost savings compared to the original specification.
Beyond performance, the project enhanced community infrastructure by improving road safety and adding a new multi-use pathway that supports active transportation. Stakeholders praised Titan’s proactive support, streamlined installation, and technical expertise, recognizing how the company combines innovative
engineering, cost efficiency, and environmental responsibility to deliver long-lasting infrastructure solutions.
