SITEDRAIN Series drainage products incorporate critical design considerations into a versatile and expanded product line. Specially designed drainage cores that address strength and flow requirements are combined with geotextiles meeting AASHTO M 288-06 survivability classifications for subsurface drainage.  This allows design professionals the flexibility to factor in the many site variables that are critical to performance based on specific conditions.

The Problem

Lagging & shoring walls present unique drainage challenges for engineers due to limited space requirements. Aggregate drainage is impractical due to excavation limitations and the large volume of material required to acheive adequate drainage.
 
Failure to design hydrostatic relief can result in leaks and in extreme cases, structural failure.

 

The Solution

Prefabricated sheet drains are sustainable, cost effective, high performance solutions for lagging /shoring wall construction.  The low profile core eliminates the need for extensive excavation but provides flow capacities equivalent to several feet of aggregate. 

SITEDRAIN prefabricated drains provide a secure, uninterrupted flow channel that allows water to bypass problem soil layers, eliminating hydrostic pressure quickly and efficiently. The formed and molded core has a filter fabric bonded securely to one side.  The fabric retains soil paritcles while allowing water to freely enter the drainage core.   

SITEDRAIN Sheet 90 Series provides single-sided drainage for vertical walls where moderate compressive strength and flow capacity are required. The core side of SITEDRAIN Sheet 90 is placed against the wall surface of the structural wall with the fabric facing the soil. 

SITEDRAIN Sheet 180 Series provides single-sided drainage for vertical walls where high compressive strength and flow capacity are required. The core side of SITEDRAIN Sheet 180 is placed against the wall surface of the structural wall with the fabric facing the soil.

SITEDRAIN C-90 & C-180 chimney drains provides single-sided drainage for vertical walls where full surface drainage is not feasible or required.

SITEDRAIN COLLECTION SYSTEMS

SITEDRAIN HQ Series functions as a high-flow collection system for SITEDRAIN Sheet products.  This patented design combines a low and high profile core with a unique core flange  designed to connect directly to the sheet drain.  Designed to collect and transport the high volumes of water collected by sheet drains, SITEDRAIN HQ is a performance driven, sustainable solution to ensure the most efficient
