Abstract: A concrete pad with drainage holes is created using an in-situ form that is preferably biodegradable with a matrix of spaced, vertically aligned conduits having upper ends with removable caps and connector means connecting the conduits. The form is horizontally positioned at the area where the pad is to be created and concrete is poured into the form until the concrete surrounds the walls of all of the conduits and the upper surface of the concrete is in a plane with the upper ends of the conduits. After the concrete has cured, the caps are allowed to biodegrade or are removed to permit water to flow from the top of the pad through the conduits for drainage from the lower ends of the conduits into the soil beneath the pad.
