What is a ditch rock?
Trench rock is used as a drainage tool. With the correct construction of the ditch, the required means of drain is at the bottom of the ditch. Drainage allows the water or drainage to be divided so that the trench itself does not fill with water. Popular material used for this type of basin is in the shape of a ditch.
Rock is a form of gravel that is poured into the bottom of the ditch and then leveled. It extends the length of the ditch so that the surface of the ditch is able to evenly spread the water shed into it. Although many people use any type of gravel they can find to create their ditch rock structure, the best type to be used is a medium -sized rock base, so there is enough space between the rocks to distract water.
In the basin ditch, the rock should fill about half the height of the moat. Furthermore, the permeable system of the trough should be laid, which is able to distribute water through itself, such as a drainage hose covered with a substance. This system should then be completely covered in a more rock, andThe drainage hose was released on the road to the drainage pan or into the lower soil tract, which is often not used.
It is important to cover the drainage hose at least 2 inches (5 cm) of ditch rocks, so any water that enters the hose does so evenly, so the hose does not engage. Once the ditch rocks cover the drainage hose, another layer of permeable fabric should be distributed to width and should cover the length of the ditch. This acts as a sediment filter for ditch rock. Then the substance should be covered at least 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) of dirt, which can be somewhat compacted or beaten to prevent erosion.
The purpose and dimensions of the ditch will determine the amount of ditch rocks. Since most people do not have the necessary amount of gravisel and rock easily accessible, the rock will in most cases be ordered according to the amount needed for work. Calculation of depth,The width and length of the ditch will provide a basic idea of how much ditch is needed.
