screen and consists of longitudinal rectangular ribs (rods) and horizontal beams
(wires) of Trapezoidal cross-section.
The jacket ribs shall contact the pipe base raising the horizontal beams above the
base of the ribs to allow water flow between the jacket and the pipe base.
The Jacket is position on to pipe base so that the ribs are located at the perforations
edges and not across the middle of the perforations.
