ABSTRACT:
A drain system for use in hillsides for preventing or remedying landslides is provided. The system includes a porous walled conduit positioned within the hillside substantially parallel the face of the hillside, i.e. tangent the contour lines of the hillside. The system may include a saddle section or chamber which essentially surrounds the conduit and provides a region of increased permeability contiguous the conduit. A second high permeability region configured as an upper extension or neck, positioned superior to the conduit, is also provided. An apron positioned adjacent the conduit functions to prevent water from moving beyond the vertical axis of the conduit. Means for installing the drain system are also disclosed.
