Abstract

This paper aims to design a network of horizontal drainage for the area being studied, in order to eliminate the excess humidity due to infiltrations and input of ground and exfiltrated water. The topographical plan of the area for which the drainage network is designed was used to make the cross-sections. As a result of the analysis the transversal scheme of drain pipes location was applied and the calculations/results for this paper corresponding to the sizing of the collector and the absorbent drain pipes, the flow rate, the volumes of soil excavation / filling and the volumes of the materials used, are included in a report that represents the basis for implementing this system in the field.
