When placed below the base aggregate the geocomposite shortens the drainage path and reduces the time to drain. When placed directly beneath the pavement surface the geocomposite intercepts and removes infiltration water before it enters the base and or subgrade. The geocomposite is tied into an edgedrain system.

The Road Pavement is the portion of the road located directly above the subgrade and beneath any wearing surface.In urban areas it is often bordered by kerb channel and in rural areas by road shoulders.It is typically constructed from compacted imported material such as crushed rock. The road pavement is sometimes broken up into two components namely the base and the sub base.
