The document discusses drainage systems for foundations. It includes definitions of key terms like foundation dewatering and filter. It describes different types of drains like open drains, lined drains, closed drains, wells, and miscellaneous methods. Open drains include catch drains, open channels, and lined options like kerb and gutter drains. Closed drains include tile drains, blanket drains, and composite drains. Wells for drainage include deep wells, horizontal wells, and well points. The document also discusses standards and materials used for drains.

Drainage means the removal of water from the soil it
have two main goals prevention of seepage, improvement
of soil properties.
 DRAINAGE SYSTEM:
Drainage system means the different methods to be
used for dewatering the foundation and to keep the
foundation safe.

9.  FOUNDATION DEWATERING:
Foundation dewatering is the way by which the
water table kept lower beneath the foundation.
 FILTER:
A type of membrane than only allows water to pass
through it. “Good filter is key of success for drainage
system.”

10. CONDUIT:
It collects water from filter and carries it away. Simplest
is a ditch or pipe designed like any other hydraulic
conduit.
 DISPOSAL:
The removal of water from the area to the drains or
sewer. If possible gravity is used because it is permanent.

11. DRAINAGE SYSTEM:DRAINAGE SYSTEM:
 The drainage system depend on drainage characteristic of
soil, the length of time of system must operate, and
position of ground water.
 For temporary drains installed during construction,
minimum interference with work and maximum
effectiveness in a short time are essential.
 For permanent drains long term effectiveness and
minimum maintenance is required.

12.  Two main goals of drainage are,
prevention of seepage
improvement of soil properties
 Requirement related to coefficient of permeability of soil.

 Drains shall be v shaped or of trapezoidal cross section
 shall not have a grade of less than 1 percent.
 avoid recharging groundwater encouraging a shallow
water table and creating or worsening salinity degradation
of adjacent land.

 Catch drains shall be
provided above the tops
of cuttings or along the
toes of embankments
before construction of the
adjacent roadway.
 The edges of catch
drains shall be positioned
not be less than 2m from
the tops of cuttings or the
toes of embankments nor
more than is necessary to
maintain the fall of the
drains. 24

25. OPEN CHANNEL DRAINOPEN CHANNEL DRAIN
 Open channel flow
is the flow of water in
a conduit with a free
surface at atmospheric
pressure.
 The flow in an open
channel is mainly
governed by gravity
(i.e. channel bed
slope)
25

26. OPEN CHANNEL CALSSIFICATION:
 ARTIFICIAL OR MAN-MADE CHANNELS:
Swales are simply shallow, low depressions in
the ground designed to encourage the accumulation of rain
during storms and hold it for a few hours or days to let it
infiltrate into the soil.
Swales can be installed separately or as part of
a larger water rain catchments system with rain gardens,
cisterns and other water conservation measure.

 Before placing any lining material, the foundation
material shall be shaped and compacted to form a firm
base for the lining.
 Stone Pitching shall consist of sound durable rock not less
than 100mm thick.
 Spaces between adjacent stones or blocks shall not exceed

 KERB AND GUTTER DRAIN:
All roads in urban areas shall generally be provided
with an integral kerb and gutter. The current practice
of providing a kerb only on roads is generally not
acceptable as there is no defined gutter to carry
stormwater flows, and the road pavement will suffer
damage.

43. DEEP WELLS:DEEP WELLS:
 Used for water supply are sometime used for drainage.
 Diameter of 12 to 24 in.
 Spacing of 25 to 100 ft or more, depend on area
 Used in coarse soils and pours rock where the quantity of
drainage water is large.
 The pump is in the bottom of the well so height of water is
lifted is not limited to 25 to 28 ft, as with suction pump.
43

44. HORIZANTAL WELLS:HORIZANTAL WELLS:
 About 3 in diameter and over 100ft long have found
handful in draining on hillside.
 The wells are installed by drilling into the hill at a slight
upward angle to intercept water bearing strata.
 The hole is then lined with a slotted or perforated pipe to
keep it open and carry water out.
 Combination of horizontal and vertical wells are very
useful, the vertical well intercept the strata, draining them
to horizontal well at the bottom the later act as a drain ,
collectors and disposal pipe.

45. 45

46. WELL POINTS:WELL POINTS:
 The well point is perforated pipe about 3.28ft long and
1.58in.in diameter
 It covered by cylindrical screen which act as a filter at
bottom.
 At the top it is connected to the bottom of the riser pipe.
 The constant pumping of water keeps the water table
depressed.
 When the depth increase from 16.5ft the multi stage setup
is needed.
46

47.  In soil with very low permeability the well point can be
operated on the vacuum principle by placing seal of highly
impervious layer of clay duly tamped in.

A DRAIN AWAY Panel foundation drainage system
utilized on foundations establishes effective drainage
and waterproofing of walls eliminating hydrostatic
pressure buildup that would eventually penetrate the
foundation walls and create a moisture-laden
environment.

53. ADVERSE EFFECT OF DRAINAGEADVERSE EFFECT OF DRAINAGE
SYSTEM:SYSTEM:
 While reducing neutral stress increases the effective stress
and the strength of the soil, the increase effective stress
produces the consolidation. If compressible strata are present,
severe settlement can cause in the structures that are within
the zone of drawdown.
 Drainage of sand temporarily enhances their strength by
producing capillary tension and increase effective stress. As a
result small excavation can be made with steep slopes without
bracing. If the work is so prolonged that the sand dries, the
capillary tension will be lost and steep excavation slopes will
collapse with loss of property or life.
53

54.  Drainage without proper filters can produce piping, and even
the formation of cavities in the soil. The cavities soon
collapse, causing the destruction of anything above. Seepage
erosion (piping) into drains and leaky sewers causes
occasional drop-out of pavements and basement floors,
particularly in sandy and silty soil.
