ABSTRACT:
A basement drainage conduit for use in basement waterproofing systems. The conduit has one or two side elements with apertures to admit groundwater. The conduit may further include an intermediate element to provide additional support to the conduit structure. In embodiments where the intermediate element does not define apertures, a two-channel system may result to prevent cross-flow within the conduit. The conduit may be a modular assembly, the individual components of which may be separately manufactured for on-site installation and customization. Structural features of the conduit components, such as those defining a mating system, may facilitate assembly of the conduit. Radius elements may be provided to accommodate corners to result in a continuous drainage conduit along the perimeter of a basement, and ports may be strategically positioned to allow access to the conduit interior, such as for cleaning.
