Drainage net product, also called Composite Geonet, is a two or three-layer three-dimensional drainage geosynthetic product which are often made with polypropylene PP or regenerated HDPE (geonet) and covered with double-sided thermally heat-bonded nonwoven geotextile on both sides or one side. drainage net is widely used for landfill, highway system drainage, road drainage, tunnel and retaining wall projects.

Case Study

The mileage of the first bid in Nairobi–Malaba Highway Project is DK2+000~DK38+000, the total length of the bid section is 36 kilometers, and the starting point is connected to the Nairobi South Station. DK2+000~DK2+750 pass through Nairobi National Park after cutting through the ICD, and then extend the north side of the park to the southwest, DK2+750~DK9+500 enter Nairobi National Park, then pass through residential areas and farmland, and go north into Ngong City. DK26+950~DK29+750 pass through the urban forest of Engong District, DK34+826~DK39+333 pass through the northern part of Engong Mountain by tunnel, and the end of the lot is at DK38+000.

for landfill, highway system drainage, road drainage, tunnel and retaining wall projects.

The main works of this section are tunnels and bridges. The excavation and filling of the subgrade earth and stone is unbalanced, and the filling is mainly used, but the soil needs to be borrowed for filling, and some sections of the line passing through need to be demolished, and the demolition amount is relatively large. The total of 10 bridges is about 12.4km, and the first tunnel is 3174 meters (within the scope of my bidding section), and the bridge-to-tunnel ratio is 43%.

The construction of the Nairobi-Malaysia highway project is currently planned to be divided into three phases. The first phase of construction is from CK0 to 120 kilometers. It is planned to officially start on October 1, 2017, and the subsequent two phases will be launched in phases.

Kenya is located in the eastern part of Africa. The weather in the coastal areas is hot and humid, and the plateau climate is relatively mild. The rainy season is from March to June and from October to December every year, and the rest of the month is the dry season. The rainy season is divided into two parts: the heavy rainy season from April to June, and the light rainy season from October to November. The average annual precipitation is 300-1400mm, and the average annual evaporation is 1450-2400mm.so the project need BPM composite geonet for highway roadbed drainage and highway soft soil foundation reinforcement drainage . Three dimensional drainage net can be installed under the road base to prevent sand and gravel into geonet and provide effective drainage and reinforcement at the same time, it can also installed between the foundation and base to facilitate drainage
