These recent mitigation projects highlight the essential need for reliable flood defense solutions and showcase Garrison’s capabilities and experience in protecting homeowners, businesses, infrastructure and government facilities.

Garrison™ Flood Control, a leader in cutting-edge flood defense systems is proud to announce the successful installation of its Hammerhead Aluminum Flood Barrier Systems at several flood-prone locations on the West Coast of Florida.

Hammerhead™ Aluminum Flood-Logs offer advanced engineering and unparalleled strength and durability in protecting properties from flooding, while preserving the aesthetic appeal and structural integrity of a property.

The Hammerhead Aluminum Flood Plank System has been tested to handle the hydrostatic pressures associated with flooding using (FEA) Finite Element Analysis and (CFD) Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis. The flood barrier system has proven effective in safeguarding properties against all types of flood events.

The objective through this simulation model was to assess for hydrostatic loading across different heights and widths of the Hammerhead System.

Client Success Stories:

The success of the Hammerhead system has allowed customers to have a trusted durable flood protection solution ready for whenever a flood threat or emergency arises. View how Hammerhead assisted clients in their flood planning and preparedness:

The Rooftop at Riverside

In Bonita Springs, Florida, the Rooftop at Riverside Restaurant Complex required flood protection to meet local building codes and FEMA requirements for dry floodproofing on new construction. Utilizing Garrison Flood Control’s Hammerhead flood logs, the property developer met all local requirements to the base flood elevation specified on FEMA flood maps, plus one foot of required freeboard.

Commercial Property Management - Naples, FL

Similarly, the commercial property management firm, Kova Properties in Naples, Florida, encountered significant damage from Hurricane Idalia at many of its properties along 5th Avenue. To protect its buildings against future flood events, Kova contracted with Garrison Flood Control to install its Hammerhead aluminum flood barriers. These removable flood barriers provide much-needed defense against expected hurricane floodwaters, while preserving the aesthetic appeal of the high-end properties and businesses along this iconic avenue.

Luxury Residential Condominium - Naples, FL
Aversana at Hammock Bay Condominiums

Furthermore, Aversana Hammock Bay Condominiums in Naples, Florida, having experienced significant flooding during the last hurricane, contracted with Garrison to install its Hammerhead aluminum flood log system at critical entrances and to protect elevator pits and building infrastructure against flood damage. The board of directors were proactive in deploying these innovative flood log barriers to protect the building and its residents property against future hurricane related flooding.

The Hammerhead Aluminum Flood-Log design allows for seamless integration into existing infrastructure and is demountable, making them ideal for retrofitting existing buildings and for meeting dry floodproofing requirements at new construction projects. U-Channel Posts are installed on either side of the opening to be protected and when flooding is expected are designed to receive a series of aluminum planks, which are stacked as needed to the height required.

Aluminum planks are manufactured using 6063 T-5 Aluminum for high tensile and yield strength.
