Abstract: A subsurface drainage assembly for directing fluid drainage from a surface is disclosed. The subsurface drainage assembly includes a plurality of drain structure panels linked together in a manner that permits movement of one drain structure panel relative to the adjacent drain structure panel. The drain structure panels have a laterally extensive backing grid and a plurality of spaced apart tubular support members projecting therefrom. The tubular support members are tapered so that the tubular support members are nestable with the tubular support members of an identical drain structure panel when the drain structure panels are stacked.

Abstract: A subsurface drainage assembly for directing fluid drainage from a surface is disclosed. The subsurface drainage assembly includes a plurality of drain structure panels that include a plurality of spaced apart tubular support members arranged to define a unit having a plurality of side edges, the tubular support members having a first end, a second end, and a sidewall extending there between. The drain structure panels further include at least one strut extending from each support member to another support member to latterly support the tubular support members. An anchor plate is positioned between at least two tubular support members. The anchor plate has an aperture formed there through sized and configured to receive a ground anchoring member for securing the drain structure panel to a ground surface.

The drain structure panels have a laterally extensive backing grid and a plurality of spaced apart support members projecting therefrom. The support members have at least one fluid flow opening formed through a sidewall so as to intersect a lower end of the support members at two rounded corners. The support members are spaced so that the support members are nestable between the support members of an identical drain structure panel when the drain structure panels are arranged in an inverted relationship with respect to one another. The drain structure panel may be placed on an impermeable liner having an upper surface with a plurality of ridges defining troughs therebetween.

Abstract: A composite filter material comprising a filter layer and a support layer bonded together. The filter layer is formed of a flexible, liquid-permeable non-woven fabric having a plurality of openings sized to permit liquids and silt particles to pass through the filter layer while preventing sand particles from passing through the filter layer. The support layer is formed of a flexible, liquid-permeable material having a grab tensile strength greater than that of the filter layer, the support layer having a plurality of openings such that the support material is at least as permeable to liquids as the filter fabric. In another embodiment, the composite filter material further comprises a drainage panel bonded to at least one of the filter layer or the support layer. The drainage panel has a laterally-extensive backing grid and a plurality of spaced-apart support members projecting from the backing grid whereby fluid may flow through the backing grid and between the support members.
