Ridgidrain ADS filter drainage pipes provide a much greater perforated area than the minimum requirement of 1000mm 2 of
perforations per metre length, as specified in Volume 1 of the Manual of Contract Documents for Highway Works.
Table 1.3.1 Filter drain perforation specification 100 - 600mm
Nominal size SLOT WIDTH Perforated area
mm mm per meter mm 2 /m
100 1.0 - 2.0 2400 min
150 1.0 - 2.5 3120 min
225 1.0 - 2.7 3000 min
300 1.0 - 3.4 4800 min

500 3.0 - 4.0 9240 min
600 3.0 - 4.0 9140 min
* The above values are for full circumferentially perforated pipes. The number of perforations and the total perforated
area should be halved for solid invert pipes.
Table 1.3.2 Filter drain perforation specification 750 - 900mm
Nominal size SLOT WIDTH Perforated area
mm mm per meteR mm 2 /m
750 3 - 4 9720 min
900 3 - 4 9720 min
The above values are for full circumferentially perforated pipes. The number of perforations and the total perforated area should
be halved for half perforated (solid invert) pipes. (Rough guide only).
