Efficient Drainage Solutions for Backfilled Areas in Railway Construction
In railway construction, effective drainage of backfilled areas is essential to prevent water accumulation and maintain structural integrity. Novura’s Secudrain® geosynthetic drainage systems are designed to collect and safely discharge percolation water, reducing hydrostatic pressure on structures such as bridge abutments and retaining walls. Secudrain® consists of a robust, three-dimensional, wave-structured polypropylene drainage core, combined with one or more Secutex® nonwoven geotextiles that serve as separation and filtration layers. This design ensures high water discharge capacity and long-term performance, effectively safeguarding the stability of railway infrastructure
