As construction materials evolved, simple ditches gave way to cast-in-place, pre-cast concrete, corrugated slot
drains, polymer concrete trenches, fiberglass trench drains, pre-engineered HDPE, and LLDPE grated slot
drains

Test results, as determined by the Faculty of Engineering(civil engineering department) at the University of Manitoba
• The computed flow capacity of a 1” (commercial) slot opening was 0.040 ft/s or 18 gallons per minute (per foot of slot)
• The computed flow capacity of a½” (residential) slot openingwas 0.026 ft/s or 11.4 gallons per minute (per foot of slot)

New Drain, Existing Floors• Mark out desired location of new drain and remove
existing drain• Follow steps for a new installation – dowel into either
side of exposed slab
Replace Existing Drain System• Remove grates and walls of existing trench drain, and
follow steps for a new installation• If existing drain walls cannot be removed, and the
existing trench is deep enough, place new drain inside the trench, secure to desired level, and pour into place
RetrofittingInstallation
