Road drainage
Lateral drainage along the road platform prevents settlements and deformations both on flat terrain and on slopes.
Our external geologists and in-house Technical Department support designers and contractors for landslides, road drainage, foundations, retaining walls, vineyards, “fishbone” layouts and “parallel trench” systems.
We design using patented modules DRENOTER and IDROSAC, sized with the proprietary software DRAINFILE PRO on the basis of the geotechnical and hydrogeological data of the site.

Performance remains constant within the limits specified in the technical data sheet. The panels can be used both as lateral drains and as main collectors in drainage trenches in landslide areas.

The “chimney” layout intercepts water inflows in the upper layers above the level of the main collector, improving drainage efficiency in the presence of heterogeneous stratigraphy.

Lateral drainage along the road platform prevents settlements and deformations both on flat terrain and on slopes.
Drainage of landslide areas is often the key measure for slope stabilization.
Foundation drainage prevents groundwater from entering underground rooms and basements.
Proper drainage reduces hydraulic thrust and prevents overturning phenomena of the retaining wall.
Control of excess water in the soil protects the root system under extreme rainfall or groundwater rises.
Size DRENOTER and IDROSAC drainage systems independently. The package includes the book “PROGETTARE SISTEMI DI DRENAGGIO DEL TERRENO” (in Italian) and the DRAINFILE PRO (Excel) software license.
