From Ray:
Hello,
** I am wanting to add 2 French Drain's in my yard. The 1st drain will be 25 ft. long, 8 in wide and 18 in deep. The pipe I'm using is 4in. in diameter. I'm trying to figure out how many yards of clean gravel I will need for this project?
** The 2nd French Drain will be 100 ft in Length, 10in wide and 18 in deep. I will also be using the 4in in diameter pipe for this drain. I am needing to see how many yards of clean gravel, I'll need for this drain?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!!
