  2. Land drains - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_drains

    Many modern land drains are created utilising rigid or flexible plastic pipes pierced with holes, laid in pea gravel. (The pea gravel is pea-sized pebbles without sharp points to damage the pipe.) Geotextile material can surround the gravel to keep out silt. This can be installed in an excavated trench.

    A diagram of a traditional French drain. A French drain [1] (also known by other names including trench drain, blind drain, [1] rubble drain, [1] and rock drain [1]) is a trench filled with gravel or rock, or both, with or without a perforated pipe that redirects surface water and groundwater away from an area.

  4. Drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage

    Drainage options for the construction industry include: Point drainage, which intercepts water at gullies (points). Gullies connect to drainage pipes beneath the ground surface, so deep excavation is required to facilitate this system. Support for deep trenches is required in the shape of planking, strutting or shoring.

  5. Orangeburg pipe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orangeburg_pipe

    Orangeburg was a low cost alternative to metal for sewer lines in particular. Lack of strength causes pipes made of Orangeburg to fail more frequently than pipes made with other materials. The useful life for an Orangeburg pipe is about 50 years under ideal conditions, but has been known to fail in as little as 10 years.

  6. Drainage system (agriculture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_system_(agriculture)

    Drainage design procedures. When the land needs a subsurface drainage system, but saline groundwater is present at great depth, it is better to employ a shallow, closely spaced system of pipes or ditches instead of a deep, widely spaced system. The reason is that the deeper systems produce a more salty effluent than the shallow systems.

  7. Tile drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tile_drainage

    The phrase "tile drainage" derives from its original composition from ceramic tiles of fired clay, which were similar to terracotta pipes yet not always shaped as pipes. In the 19th century a C-shaped channel tile commonly was placed like an arch atop a flat tile, denominated the "mug" and "sole", respectively.

  8. Trench drain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_drain

    Attaching the drainage pipes to the suspended form; Filling the trench with concrete (surrounding the form base and sides) and finishing the concrete flush with the metal frame; And after drying, removing the wooden form, cleaning the pipe inverts and placing the grates in the frame. This installation method is by far the most labor-intensive.

  9. Septic drain field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septic_drain_field

    A septic drain field, a septic tank, and associated piping compose a septic system. The drain field typically consists of an arrangement of trenches containing perforated pipes and porous material (often gravel) covered by a layer of soil to prevent animals (and surface runoff) from reaching the wastewater distributed within those trenches.
