    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. Land drains - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_drains

    This can be partially overcome by surrounding the pipes with gravel. However, with time even the gravel becomes choked with soil/silt, so in the latest practice, the gravel is surrounded with a geotextile material which filters out soil particles. Ideally, land drains are laid with access points so that high pressure water jetting is possible ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_aggregate

    In Europe, sizing ranges are specified as d/D, where the d shows the smallest and D shows the largest square mesh grating that the particles can pass. Application-specific preferred sizings are covered in European Standard EN 13043 for road construction, EN 13383 for larger armour stone, EN 12620 for concrete aggregate, EN 13242 for base layers of road construction, and EN 13450 for railway ...

  6. Percolation trench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percolation_trench

    A percolation trench is similar to a dry well, which is typically an excavated hole filled with gravel. [3] Another similar drainage structure is a French drain, which directs water away from a building foundation, but is usually not designed to protect water quality.

  7. Cellular confinement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_confinement

    Early research (Bathurst and Jarrett, 1988) [13] found that cellular confinement reinforced gravel bases are "equivalent to about twice the thickness of unreinforced gravel bases" and that geocells performed better than single sheet reinforcement schemes (geotextiles and geogrids) and were more effective in reducing lateral spreading of infill under loading than conventional reinforced bases.

  9. 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.
