Roof Garden &Planter Box Drainage

Benefits...

Remove excess water, while passively irrigating.

The Atlantis® Drainage Cell is an ideal structural and lightweight system designed for Planter Box and Roof Garden applications.

The Atlantis® Drainage Cell allows optimal growing conditions for vegetation through ideal moisture conditions and aeration. Only excess water is removed and the soil profile retains a high moisture content. In addition the Atlantis® Drainage Cell features water storage cups used for passive irrigation and due to the structural design of the cell, a void space is created, providing aeration and promoting growth for root systems.

The Atlantis® Drainage Cell will also function as a protective membrane for waterproofing on concrete slabs, walls and provide ventilation for concrete slabs, alleviating heat induced stress and cracking.

2. Covering Atlantis® Drainage Cell with hydrophilic geotextile, allowing a good overlap on the sides, held with tape, then laid with a minimum of 50mm of clean river sand.

3. Lay permeable soil mix to desired depth, then plant and mulch as required.

1. Laying Atlantis® Drainage Cell.

1. Compressive strength tests were conducted at the University of Technology, Sydney under controlled conditions. Safety factors should be employed to these results as actual site conditions may effect real compressive strength values.

2. Atlantis® Matrix® tank modules are manufactured using recycled products, Atlantis recommends a structural capacity incorporating a minimum safety factor of 2 to allow for variation in recycled plastic batches.

3. Loading at yield from 160kN/m² to 200kN/m². Safety factors apply depending on application.For more information, please consult Atlantis Water Management.
