Soil composition

Infiltration capacity of the soil

Overview of different kf-values for soils

The underground composition is of crucial importance for rainwater infiltration. The permeability coefficient (kf-value) is a measure of water permeability of the soil. The permeability coefficient should be between 10^-3 and 10^-6 in order to ensure the functionality of the infiltration system.
