Colbonddrain ®
prefabricated vertical drain
Colbonddrain permits accelerated consolidation of cohesive soil by offering a highly permeable drainage path for excess pore water.
Civil Engineers, planners and contractors aim for direct economic highways, aiports and other traffic routes using natural resources as efficiently as possible in their construction: this often means having to build on poor soils and sometimes even to reclaim land. In many cases, the sub-grade is too weak to allow construction to proceed at a normal rate. Soft, cohesive soils are very slow to consolidate. 90% settlement often takes 20-25 years without the use of Prefabricated Vertical Drains (PVD's).

With
Colbonddrain prefabricated vertical drain (PVD), Colbond
Geosynthetics provides an economical solution to this issue. The
principle feature of Colbonddrain lies in providing much shorter
and highly permeable drainage paths for the dissipation of excess
porewater pressure, allowing 90% consolidation in a time period of
months, rather than years.
