| AUSDRAIN™
30mm Drainage Cell creates a permanent non-clogging void
between the concrete slab and the soil profile that will
not collapse or distort. The 30mm void enables a direct
flow of water to designated outlets avoiding the risk
of water build-up and penetration. The large surface and
capacity void space enables superior drainage efficiency
compared to the small voids created by using a gravel
system. The lightweight
nature of this product reduces weight on the structure
by 98% over gravel making it the perfect choice for
roof gardens and podiums. In addition, there is a
5:1 reduction in the drainage medium height allowing
greater soil depth and scope for plantings.
The AUSDRAIN™ cell is the
strongest product available on the market with a university
tested compressive strength up to 1500 kPa. This allows
materials to be delivered directly by truck and machinery
to spread sand and soil once a minimum of 400mm has
been placed over the drainage cell/ filter fabric
layer.
Filter fabric is placed over the
drainage cell and is supplied in roll widths of 2m
and 4m. The fabric combined with a layer of washed
sand, filters the water eliminating staining caused
by gravel, stone and soil materials. The drainage
cell also acts as a membrane protection layer, however,
depending on the membrane it is recommended to use
a suitable protection board between the membrane and
drainage cell layer.
AUSDRAIN™ 30mm Drainage
Cell is available in 356x356mm modules for smaller
areas, 356 x 1068mm strips or 1068 x 1068mm interlocked
panels for ease of installation on large area projects.
