[Music] check out the sand master from US company barrier systems LLC an extraordinary mechanism that provides sandbagging on a monumental scale with its high production rate the San Master provides sandbag teams with a much better chance of completing the preparations prior to the arrival of a flood this incredible mechanism is capable of producing 4,800 to 6200 sandbags in eight hours time with only a three-person crew first empty bags are attached through the San Master with a speed loader once the trigger activated tension rings secure the bags tightly in place the San Master is ready to rock and roll the San Master works by plowing straight into the sand to fill its empty bags already securely locked and tied to the device the filled bags are then carried to the drop-off location where they are closed securely tied and dropped where they're needed available as the San Master 24 skid steers and the San Master 26 for back hoes and loaders the San Master can mean the difference between preservation and total devastation during a major flooding event [Music] check out the dam easy and off-the-shelf barrier that protects your homes vulnerable entranceways against flood water due to the weather's unpredictable nature a flash flooding event can occur without warning installed within minutes without excessive tools or brackets this quick and easy barrier uses a unique pump-action seal to completely cut off the potential of water leakage into your precious home environment the damn easy barrier can be installed in three simple steps first position the barrier in the opening just outside of your door next use a wrench to extend the side panels until firmly in place this provides up to one point one meters of width which covers the distance of the vast majority of all door reveal spaces finally use the pump-action handle to inflate the seal and you're all set for when the water arrives that would require some concrete work an extension pole can be installed for wider spaces that call for the use of multiple barriers a security cover is also available to prevent tampering with the damn easy flood barrier keeping the water out is well you know the rest [Music] this is the waterblock a simple yet amazingly effective flood barrier from Canadian company barricade environmental installed for barricade environmental by Canadian company flood barrier America the water block effectively stops any and all encroaching water dead in its tracks this highly efficient flood barrier is used to protect homes woodlands boardwalks cemeteries or even entire neighborhoods when water approaches the water block does exactly what its name implies it blocks in made of high-strength PVC fabrics designed to maximize puncture resistance tensile and tear strength the waterblock is a tube shaped structure incorporating twin chambers with an internal baffle ports within the baffle allow the water that's pumped into the tube to be equally distributed throughout both chambers the enormous weight this creates within the tube ensures a stable dam of contained water that will not roll as opposed to flash flooding events the water block is generally used as a semi-permanent barrier against the potential for lakes rivers and other existing waterways to exceed their usual levels also effective against waterborne ice floes the water block allows communities living near waterways to live in harmony with their environment meet the pedestrian and roadway gate a fully engineered passive flood control system from Texas company flood break permanently installed beneath door entrances stairwells pedestrian walkways and traffic access points this anti flood gate automatically blocks pedestrian and vehicle entrances from street level flooding without supervision or human activation of any kind these gates will self deploy should a flooding event occur [Music] under normal conditions the gate remains architectural be blended in with the surrounding infrastructure yet when floodwaters strike the rising water creates hydrostatic pressure this water pressure floats a buoyant hollow aluminum beam which acts to raise the flood barrier into its protected position the rising water also activates self-sealing rubber gaskets that keep the water from seeping through the barrier when the barrier reaches a 90 degree upright position the flood waters hold the gate firmly in place when the water recedes the gate falls lovely back into its recessed location allowing vehicle and pedestrian traffic to resume thoroughly tested and built to last for years flood break floodgates have made a major impact in flood protection technology [Music] check out the flow defense flood barrier an innovative flood barrier from the land down under cleverly and discreetly hidden within a small area of a walkway or roadway this flood barrier also requires no human intervention for activation like the pedestrian and roadway gates from the flood break company the barriers from flow defense also use rising floodwaters to create the hydrostatic pressure required to activate and raise the gate but instead of rising at an angle from the roadway or walkway the flow defense barriers rise from beneath the surface vertically to achieve the water pressure required to raise the barrier the flow defense system uses a small grate that's positioned flush with the surface just in front of the hidden barrier assembly as floodwaters flow into the grade they fill the barrier with enough water to float the barrier upward into its raised position the flow defense barrier also automatically lowers as the flood waters recede by offering full time flood protection at greatly reduced labour maintenance and post flood cleanup costs the automatic flood barriers from flow defense are worth every penny required for installation [Music] introducing the Nowak flood fighting system to amazing portable flood barriers that could save lives and property during flooding events while filling in positioning sandbags against the coming flood is difficult and time-consuming the Nowak flood fighting system includes two distinct barriers that can be erected much faster using less manpower designed for the urban environment the no act box while BW 50 is a free-standing flood barrier that uses the weight of the flood water to anchor itself in place made of lightweight easily transportable box sections the BW 50 can be erected by a single person [Music] including convenient curb corner and length attachments that allow it to be customized to any area the Box wall BW 50 has been shown to be amazingly effective light enough to be erected by just two people the no act tube wall consists of tube shaped sections filled by an air pump and arranged in a chain leg configuration including a skirt that's also anchored in place by the floodwaters the tube wall works best in a rural setting now being deployed around the world the Noack flood fighting system gives communities a fighting chance against sudden catastrophic floods this is the rapid am a quickly deployable flood protection product from Florida company flood barrier with incidences of flooding seemingly increasing the Rapidan gives residents and emergency personnel a better chance of protecting homes businesses and critical infrastructure available as the freestanding and bulk down versions the rapid dam is made of a special PVC cloth which is rolled out and erected by only two to three people the freestanding model includes individual ten meter sections that can be extended by connecting the sections together allowing a 20 meter section to be setup in about 15 minutes once the upper barrier section is raised the leading edge is secured by special screw anchors when the flood arrives the weight of the water holds the barrier in place secured to the ground by stainless steel bolts the bolt down version requires the installation of a concrete beam pre-installed into the concrete the bolts are removed and screwed back in when the rapid dam is rolled out able to hold back a ton of water per meter the rapid am shows how lightweight materials and human ingenuity can overcome nature's wrath introducing the flood block from floovio innovations a robust flexible flood barrier that can be rapidly deployed by one person made of interlocking modules that are joined together using weighted connection Keast the flood block can be configured in any length and in any direction required its ability to form sharp corners also makes it perfect for creating various shapes this allows the flood block to be used to form water reservoirs or to encircle an entire home or business in addition to its weighted connection keys flood blocks modules are held in place by the weight of rising floodwaters used by several other innovative flood barriers this technique keeps the modules firmly anchored to the ground the flood blocks modular design allows it to be deployed at a moment's notice unlike heavy sandbags which require tremendous manpower and can often leak the flood blocks modules are lightweight stackable and can be retrieved and deployed amazingly fast with it's convenient Portability and configurable design the flood block stands ready to block the water whenever or wherever it appears which of these anti-flood inventions impressed you most tell us in
