CONSTRUCTION AND WATER
DRAINAGE
The construction of drainage means the removal of underground water. Water will be removed by means of perforated pipes. For moisture protection of buildings and built-up areas, this is of great importance.
Previously were not glazed, porous tubes made of clay into the ground and loaded with slag wrapped.
Today mainly technically easier deployable and more lasting techniques are making. There are now at the top perforated hoses as drainage tubes or drainage pipes.
To the drainage pipes around a tiered rock grain relocated so that a shipper andean avoided, and thus the functioning of the drainage is maintained.
CONSISTING
A functioning drainage (for norms see DIN 4095), consists of the whole earth is in the area surrounding and Part porous layer, the so-called surface drainage. Furthermore, there is a functioning drainage consists of a piping system for the discharge of water where applicable. This is in the surface drainage collecting water is in a piping system (ie, the drainage pipes). Thereafter, the water is at a low point and then collected with the help of a pump (a type of lifting cavity) in the before area. This would be, if there is a possibility, of course, with a natural gap even better.
