Drainage geocomposite calculator

Behind a retaining or basement wall, or across a slab or slope: the composite to order and the collector pipe at the foot.

How the calculation works

Behind a wall the composite covers wall length × the height to be drained; on a slab or slope it covers the area. Overlap and wastage are added, and a wall gets a collector pipe along its full length at the foot. Example: a 60 m wall drained over 4 m needs 252 m² with 5% overlap and 60 m of pipe.
