JDR Enterprises J-Drain SWD US Fabric Equivalent is AWD SITEDRAIN 9400

SITEDRAIN 9400 geocomposite strip drain products are composed of a dimpled polymeric perforated core fully wrapped in a nonwoven geotextile. The geotextile allows water to pass through while retaining backfill materials. The perforated core allows water collection from all sides and provides a continuous flow path to designated drainage exits.

SITEDRAIN 9400 products provide a value engineered alternative to perforated pipe and aggregate subsurface drainage systems requiring high strength, high flow capacity, and a geotextile meeting AASHTO M288 Class 3 subsurface drainage requirements.

Product meets the following M.A.R.V. values:

J-Drain SW consists of a heavy duty polypropylene sheet cuspated under heat and pressure to form a 3 dimensional, high flow, dimpled drainage core. The core is then wrapped and bonded with a non-woven filter fabric. The filter fabric retains soil or sand particles as well as freshly placed concrete or grout, allowing filtered water to pass into the drainage core. Soil backfill is retained while allowing water to pass into the drainage system providing hydrostatic relief. Collected water is then conveyed to a collection system. The drainage core is chemically resistant and designed for applications where chemical exposure is possible. The 1 inch (25 mm) profile design allows for higher venting and flow rates. This data for J-Drain SWD is provided for informain purposes only.

(1) In-plane flow rate measured at 360 psf compressive load and a hydraulic gradient of 1.0.
