Delta ® DRAIN
DELTA®-DRAIN is an effective product to control the flow of water and prevent
damage from soil moisture through cracks and gaps in below grade structures,
while relieving hydrostatic pressure. DELTA®-DRAIN is particulary suited for
hillside residential and light commercial construction to a depth of 30' (10m).
The product is comprised of a multi-layer geocomposite.
The first layer is the high-density polyethylene drainage core with a newly
developed dimple pattern. This design allows for the following advantages: high
compressive strength, outstanding toughness and increased drainage capacity. The
dimpled sheet keeps incoming water off of the waterproofing layer and acts as
highly effective protection during backfill operations.
The second layer is a heatbonded polypropylene geotextile. Securely bonded to
the dimple crowns by a thermal process for lasting durability and performance,
this geosynthetic material provides superb filtering performance. The rot-proof
geotextile removes suspended soil particles and prevents clogging of the flow
passages in the dimpled core. The result: continuous drainage of incoming water
to the drain-pipe system below, thus protecting the foundation against water
damage for many decades to come. The drainage capacity of this high-quality
product is further increased by the close dimple spacing of the new texturing
pattern.
DELTA®-DRAIN is a convenient, economical and environmentally friendly sound
subsurface drain board that is specially designed for easy use and versatile
application.
The specialty TYPAR® geotextile screens out soil particles to maintain high
water flow rates through the drainage core. DELTA®-DRAIN with its high-flow
capacity core ensures effective drainage for virtually any construction project.
This also enhances waterproofing and relieves hydrostatic prressure buildup
against subterranean surfaces.
The product can be used for instance for hillside construction, residential and
small commercial foundations, ICF-foundations, full wall drainage for
waterproofing applications, retaining walls, etc.
