Notre entreprise- Nos services- Nos forces

Wick Drains are used to accelerate the consolidation of fine-grained soils to expedite construction and limit long-term settlement.

Wick Drains consist of a plastic core wrapped in geotextile fabric that act as a drainage path and evacuate pore water from soft, compressible soils to induce consolidation and settlement. Geopac has developed its own range of vertical Wick Drain installation equipment to meet a wide variety of soil and site conditions. The company uses static and vibratory methods to install Wick Drains and has considerable experience in penetrating difficult surface layers including pre-augering through stiff clays and special downhill drilling to penetrate rubble, concrete, slag and other types of fill.

Advantages of Wick Drains:

* Accelerates the consolidation of fine-grained soils
* Strengthens underlying soil to accommodate super-imposed loads
* Limits long-term settlement
