Sewage and rainwater pipelines
At Civiltrek Ingeniería we develop sewerage and storm water drainage projects, designing efficient networks that guarantee the correct evacuation of wastewater and runoff water.
Our technical team carries out the hydraulic sizing of the pipelines, the design of collectors, manholes and drainage systems, ensuring the correct operation of the network and compliance with current regulations.
These projects are essential in urbanizations, urban developments, infrastructures and buildings, as they allow the proper management of water and prevent problems of flooding or saturation of the network.
In Civiltrek Ingeniería we elaborate complete technical projects or develop projects from existing construction proposals, collaborating with developers, architects and construction companies to adapt the solutions to each project.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the difference between the sanitation system and the stormwater system?
The sanitation system is responsible for evacuating wastewater from the use of the building (bathrooms, kitchens, washing machines, etc.), while the rainwater system manages rainwater collected from roofs, terraces and outdoor areas.
Both systems must operate independently and be properly designed, as they have completely different behaviors, flow rates and requirements.
Why is it so important to design the sanitation (wastewater) system correctly?
Because it guarantees the hygienic and safe evacuation of used water, avoiding problems such as bad odors, backflows, blockages or leaks.
A good design not only complies with regulations, but also ensures stable operation over time, taking into account slopes, ventilation, diameters and connection to the general network or autonomous systems.
When not properly planned, problems usually appear in daily use and are complex to correct once the work has been executed.
What happens when there is no sewage system nearby?
In these cases it is necessary to resort to autonomous wastewater management systems. The most common solution is total oxidation treatment plants or other equivalent systems, which allow the water to be treated within the plot itself before it is discharged into the ground, in compliance with current regulations.
However, when such discharge is not possible (due to soil characteristics, environmental limitations or administrative restrictions), watertight tanks
are used. These systems store the wastewater without filtration into the soil, and therefore require periodic maintenance through emptying by an authorized manager.In both cases, design and sizing are essential to ensure proper operation, avoid sanitary or environmental problems and ensure compliance with applicable regulations.
Why is stormwater management a critical point in any project?
Because the installations must be prepared to evacuate large quantities of water in very short periods of time.
Unlike sanitation, where the flow is relatively constant, the rainwater system works under extreme conditions. If it is not properly sized, water accumulation, seepage, soil erosion or damage to the building can occur.
What is considered when designing an efficient stormwater system?
Aspects such as the collection surface, expected rainfall intensity, slopes, collection points (drains, gutters) and final water evacuation are analyzed.
It is also key how this system is integrated with the rest of the project, preventing water from affecting accesses, basements, walls or foundations.
