Abstract

A drainage panel system comprising: a first drainage panel edge region; a second drainage panel edge region; and a connector component; wherein, the connector component bridges the first drainage panel edge region and the second drainage panel edge region, to join the first drainage panel edge region and the second drainage panel edge region.

Abstract

A composite material made up of fluid permeable layer and a core having drainage voids between projections thereon. The core has a number of relatively large openings defined therein so that in use the fluid permeable layer may extend through the openings in response to a working load applied thereto.
