Sandy Soil Layer-Green Pavement Irrigation and Drainage Grass Grid Green Pavement Grass Grid Growing Medium Geotextile Capillary Action Subsurface Irrigation Graded Gravel Geotextile WCID-Water Conservation, Irrigation and Drainage System Wicking Bed During a rain shower or irrigation application, the soil pores will fill with water, soil moisture content 20~30% in volume. Irrigation water moves through the Arched Mesh Pipes and reaches root cluster areas efficiently by soil capillary action. Irrigation water requirements and irrigation manpower are reduced, Plant growth increase are equivalent to reduce in fertilizer. Arched Mesh Pipe exclude oversaturated soil water and high water table. Arched Mesh Pipe install without filter coating, clog-resistant. Arched Mesh Pipe high efficiency drainage, the soil is not discharged. Easy to install, maintenance and management is simple, It is the best water conservation, irrigation and drainage systems for green parking space and green driveway.

-Features WCID Water Solutions are water management solutions specializing in water conservation and provide efficient drainage and subsurface wicking irrigation. WCID provides these benefits using clog free subsurface pipe that does not require additional filter material but absorbs and distributes water to the growing medium using non-pressurized, gravity driven, capillary physics. The grass grid load-bearing surface layer enables drainage of surface water which then provides their underground irrigation of the grass root cluster areas by capillary action which in turn supports plant and root growth. Grass Grid Intake Ball float valve Capillary Action Subsurface Irrigation Level adjustment Outflow Irrigation Well Water Conservation and Irrigation System Arched Mesh Pipe Wicking Bed Overflow Well Water stored in the system reduces surface soil saturation during wet weather providing rainwater recycling and underground irrigation during dry season. Wicking bed composed by a PE cloth, fill in the ditches porous soil, the soil generally a gap of 20~ 30% by volume can be stored soil water. Ball float valve is to control the soil saturated and automatic irrigation water supply. Arched Mesh Pipe half-moon shape design. The half-moon part is impermeable layer and the flat part is permeable layer. When constructing, the flat part of the mesh lies down. It results in soil particles sinking due to gravity and not going with water into the aqueduct. Therefore Arched Mesh Pipe can solve the problem of underground drainage pipe blocking without filter material and clog-resistant. Water level regulator to adjust the permeability of the capillary action of underground irrigation water level.

System The subgrade The sub-grade is at the bottom of the profile. This is the layer after removal of the existing soils to the required depth which the ability of the existing soils to handle imposed loadings. The sub-grade could finish up 10cm~50cm below the existing surface. It is advisable that the sub-grade is compacted by roller or other method and an even working surface created. The sub-base layer On top of the sub-grade a sub-base layer needs to be installed. This sub-base layer needs to be stable and porous graded gravel. The sub-base needs to be compacted to the required depth. At the bottom and the top of the sub-base a geotextile separation layer needs to be installed. Bedding Layer On top of the geotextile covering the graded gravel sub-base construction, a layer of approximately 5cm of 60/40 root-zone sandy soil should be placed and compacted. This bedding layer should been no less than 35mm deep to allow good grass root structure to grow and no more than 50mm deep after compaction to avoid possibly compromising the structural integrity of the construction profile. The Root-zone layer will need to be leveled off to provide an even surface for the grass grid to be laid. Laying the grass grid Grass grid should be laid from above onto the prepared rootzone bedding layer, working from one corner laying adjacent paving grids into their connectors. Grass grid plastic paving grids can be cut on-site using a handsaw or other mechanical saw to match site / client requirements, shapes and obstacles. Filling the Pavers Grass grid should be filled nearly to the top with the root-zone leaving a gap of approximately 5mm off the top. This layer can be brushed in and not compacted. Overfilling is likely to cause unnecessary compaction of the root-zone when trafficked leading to bad retention of the grass layer. Grass grid grass paver filled surface can then be seeded, fertilized and watered in if necessary. Rolling in turf is not advised. Wicking Bed A wicking bed is a raised bed with a reservoir built in to provide water for the plants. A waterproof liner is placed in soil, and graded gravel is added inside along with a arched mesh pipe. Then weed block fabric is placed over this to form the reservoir. Soil is then put on top of this, and as the plants grow the water wicks up into the soil. It not only is an excellent way to save water but encourages the plants to send their roots down farther.
