How to construct a geomembrane

The following are the main steps and precautions for geomembrane construction:

I. Preparation
1. Material Inspection

Ensure the quality of geomembrane, connectors, supports, and other materials meets requirements, and check that their quantity and specifications match the design.

2. Site Preparation

Clean the construction site, ensuring it is flat, firm, and free of debris. Implement drainage measures to prevent water accumulation during construction and its impact on quality.

3. Measurement and Layout

Measure and mark the construction area according to design requirements, ensuring accurate positioning.

II. Geomembrane Laying
1. Laying Sequence

Lay the geomembrane from upstream to downstream to ensure proper water penetration and maintain the geomembrane’s tensile strength.

2. Connection Method

Use connectors to connect the geomembrane into a complete waterproof layer. Ensure tight joints to prevent leakage.

3. Fixing Method

Use supports to fix the geomembrane in the soil to prevent displacement or wrinkling during construction.

4. Overlap Treatment

Geomembrane overlaps should strictly adhere to specifications, ensuring no wrinkles, cracks, or leaks at the overlaps.

III. Precautions
1. Protect the Geomembrane

Avoid damaging the geomembrane during construction, especially at overlaps.

2. Quality Inspection

Conduct quality inspections after construction to ensure the geomembrane installation meets requirements. Repair any leaks promptly.

3. Site Cleanup

Clean up the site promptly after construction to maintain cleanliness.

4. Safe Construction

Comply with site safety regulations, wear appropriate safety equipment, and ensure the safety of construction personnel.
