From a word above, its clearly enough that geocomposite is using minimum 2 kinds of different material for making a soil improvement.
In general, there are two kinds of geocomposite, as follow :
• Vertical Wick Drain
• Horizontal Drain
The main use of Vertical Wick Drain is to make the consolidation faster by excess the pore water dissipates quickly through shorter drainage paths.
The use of Horizontal Drain is to excess the water in a horizontal plain.
BENEFIT :
- Minimum disturbance to the soil layers during installation.
- High water discharge capacity.
- Suit to the various soil conditions.
- High Compressive Strength
- Unique and Flexible
- Lightweight
- Fast and easy installation
- No on-site fabrication
- No aggregates required
- For Vertical Wick Drain, the deep of installation exceeding
40 metres in depth.
