With the advancement in geosynthetics, some alternative ways for drainage have become common in now days. One such alternative solution for this problem is geocomposite drain. It is a geosynthetic product which is used as an alternate to conventional gravel drainage layer behind earth retaining structures, RS wall, buried structures like basements and culverts, in terrace garden and dam applications etc.
ATDRAIN is a geocomposite drain produced by sandwiching drainage layer (geonet) between two geotextile layers. ATDRAIN can also be provided with geomembrane on one side to act as a hydraulic barrier and at the same time drain of excess water for area above the ATDRAIN. Because of two material ATDRAIN performs various functions such as drainage, filtration, separation, barrier, reinforcement and Protection.
