INTERDRAIN GMG 725 (100.000 m²) as an anti-capillary action barrier at the bases of high-speed train embankments (Italfer)
INTERDRAIN (GMG) FUNCTIONS
1. Intercepts infiltrated water (rain water, flooding in the case of tidal land or rivers).
2. Speeds upt the reduction in interstitials pressures (after a flood, for example).
3. Cuts off capillary ascent of water.
4. Drains off the water (capillary action, water infiltration) to the sides.
5. Anti-pollution layer of fines.
6. Drains all the water into the drain pipe.

Reinforcing geogrid and/or geotextiles depending on the consistency of the earth.
1. Stabilization of the base of the embankment and control of differential seating (short-term reinforcement)
2. Long-term reinforcement of the base of the embankment.
