Prefabricated Vertical Drains

Prefabricated Vertical Drains

Prefabricated vertical drains (PVD) consist of a nonwoven filter wrapped around a polypropylene core. PVD is a soil improvement technique designed to accelerate the consolidation of soft, compressible soils. This system creates drainage columns that facilitate the drainage of water from the soil. Thus, when combined with preloading, the time required to achieve the desired settlement is drastically reduced from years to just months, significantly optimizing consolidation times.
Prefabricated Vertical Drains

Advantages

Accelerated consolidation process
The solution allows the soil layers to progressively gain strength in less time, promoting soil stability.

Differential settlement control
Contributes to reducing soil settlement, improving its structural performance.

Fast and efficient installation
Its design allows for simple installation, optimizing construction times and costs.

Applications

  • Walls and embankments
  • Bridges
  • Tailings dams
  • Railways
  • Airports and ports
  • Storage tanks
