DELTA®-MS 20 - Tunnel Ceiling & Wall Application

Its high drainage capacity enables DELTA®-MS 20 to meet all requirements for occurring water problems on tunnel construction projects.

Properties

With its 20 mm dimples and very high drainage capacity, DELTA®-MS 20 is especially reliable for high performance seepage and drainage layers in tunneling and other double shell horizontal or vertical constructions.

Material

Dimpled membrane made of special, high-density polyethylene.

Application

When laid vertically, the water emerging from the rocky substratum is drained away through a DELTA®-MS 20 seepage layer. Build-up of hydrostatic pressure is prevented.
