Drainage composite is a subset within the family of geosynthetic material. They are used in environmental, geotechnical and transportation applications. The main objective of drainage composite is to combine the best features of different materials in such a way that specific problems are solved in optimal manner providing optimum performance and minimum cost. Drainage composite reduces the pore water pressure and thus increases the overall stability of earth retain structures. It is laid behind the wall facia. If in case there is the conventional retaining wall system consisting of the weep holes, the Geo-composite Drain can be used for the dissipation of the water.
