What should we pay attention to when constructing composite geomembrane?

1. Embedded type must be used: the covering thickness should not be less than 30cm.

2. The renovation anti-seepage system should consist of: cushion layer, anti-seepage layer, transition layer and protective layer. ​

3. The soil must be solid to avoid uneven subsidence and cracks, and turf and tree roots within the anti-seepage range must be removed. Sand or clay with small particle size is laid on the contact surface with the membrane as a protective layer. ​

4. When laying, do not pull the geomembrane too tightly. It is better to have the parts buried in the soil at both ends in a corrugated shape. Especially when anchored with rigid materials, a certain amount of expansion and contraction should be left. ​

5. During construction, stones and heavy objects should be avoided from hitting the geomembrane directly, and the protective layer should be covered while laying the membrane.
