Geocomposite HDPE drainage and protection membrane
The Proofex Sheetdrain range are geocomposite drainage sheets with either 8mm or 10mm thick HDPE cuspated core and non-woven polypropylene geotextiles, recommended for most building and civil engineering drainage applications.
Proofex Sheetdrain is an HDPE cuspated drainage sheet, available in 2 sizes: 8mm for depths up to 6m and 10mm for depths up to 20m. It is fixed to walls and roofs of structures to
provide a filtered, drainage plane that will route ground water and gases away from the structure, utilising subsoil drains to link with the site drainage system. Proofex Sheetdrain reduces water pressure on structures and the possibility of water ingress and can be effectively used in conjunction with other waterproofing systems. Proofex Sheetdrain can also be used as protection to a sheet membrane against physical damage from backfill operations. It is an effective alternative to traditional stone ‘French’ drains providing improved drainage performance. Where directly cast concrete sub-structure walls need to be drained, Proofex Sheetdrain may be used as a lost shuttering liner. Proofex Sheetdrain is effective in constructing basements, retaining walls, service ducts, lift pits and subways with and without Proofex sheet membrane, allowing construction to BS 8102 :2009. Proofex Sheetdrain provides filtered drainage and enhanced protection when used with Proofex waterproof membranes on reservoirs, podia and elevated slabs.
Advantages:
- Cost effective - no need for up to 500mm thick stone drainage layer behind retaining walls
- Easy site application
- Reduced environmental impact - no need for vehicular removal and transportation of spoil off site and subsequent replacing with expensive stone drainage layer
- High flow rate (water and gas)
- High impact resistant, HDPE cuspated core with a compressive strength of up to 675 kN/m² provides drainage void around structures under backfill and long term loadings
- Cost effective alternative to ‘French Drains’
