Drainage System

•Drainage is the natural or

artificial removal of a surface's
water and sub-surface water
from an area with excess of
water. The internal drainage of
most agricultural soils is good
enough to prevent severe
waterlogging, but many soils
need artificial drainage to
improve production or to
manage water supplies.
Drainage System
 (Catch Basin)
Catch Basin
•A catch basin is an underground
pit or receptacle at the entrance of
a drain designed to trap debris and
hence prevent them from clogging
the drainpipe farther away. The
solids settle at the bottom of the
basin while the clear liquids flow
out into the drainpipe.
Different Types of
Catch Basin;
Yard Catch Basin

•A catch basin is a large drain,

usually placed in low areas of a
yard, to catch surface runoff
water. It usually consists of a
surface drain that leads to an
enlarged box beneath that is
then tied to an underground
drainage system that finally
leads to downspout drains or
storm sewers.
Garage Catch Basin

•Garage floor drains or catch basins are

a must-have if your garage is sloped,
and the nearby road collects a lot of
water. They drain the excess rainwater
into a sewage system so that it doesn’t
deposit onto the garage floor.  Garage
floor drains closely resemble catch
basins. The only major difference is the
design. In most cases, floor drains are
round holes that look like your shower
drain hole

Grease Basin
•A grease trap (also known
as grease interceptor, grease
recovery device, grease
capsule and grease converter) is a 
plumbing device (a type of trap)
designed to intercept most greases
 and solids before they enter a
wastewater disposal system.
