Faster installs
Design life
For designers and engineers delivering certainty from model to site
ViaCon’s steel tank solutions, including our coordinated 3-in-1 system that integrates the attenuation tank, flow control manholes and carrier pipework into a single prefabricated package, provide design flexibility, sustainability and long-term performance, with a design life of up to 120 years. The system is engineered for predictable assembly and buildability, supporting programme certainty, and can be designed in accordance with CD375, with established WRC compliance and BBA certification for highway applications.
To support you from early design stage, ViaCon provides a Design Toolkit and Carbon Calculator, enabling engineers to model using our steel tank specifications from the outset. This supports informed design decisions, procurement and ESG objectives, and a clear progression from concept through to construction.

Design smarter in minutes – how it works
Create customised stormwater attenuation solutions in minutes and package everything needed for efficient coordination and confident delivery.
By aligning early design with our steel specifications, the Design Toolkit supports faster, more buildable solutions, supported by design calculations and installation guidance. It also allows you to evidence whole-life value through CO₂e comparisons and predictable performance, with a design life of up to 120 years.
Case studies
Complex deep‑depth, high‑volume soakaway tank solution
Deep installation with high storage volume delivered using the modular 3‑in‑1 concept to protect programme and simplify coordination.
Harvesting rainwater for a sustainable cooling solution
When the municipal supply couldn’t meet demand, the design switched to harvesting roof rainwater. The prefabricated steel tank system installed faster and proved more cost‑effective than the originally planned concrete design.
FAQ
The ViaCon 3-in-1 system delivers roof drainage, surface water collection, and attenuation in one prefabricated pipe-run. Replacing multiple separate elements with a single system helps reduce installation time, on-site labour, and overall construction cost.
ViaCon attenuation tanks can be designed for trafficked areas and highway applications in accordance with Eurocodes (LM1–LM3) and, where required, BS 5400 HA/HB loading, including a 100 kN single wheel load.
Yes, we do both. We can supply only, or supply and install.
Installation time varies depending on project size. Smaller projects can take a day, while larger ones may take a couple of weeks. Compared to other solutions, ViaCon tanks are quick and simple to install.
Steel is 100% recyclable. With design optimisation and material choices, we can achieve up to 70% lower CO2e vs other materials, with robust design life and predictable performance.
