Construction procedure
(1)Cleaning grass-roots level (2)Geomembrane laying (3)Joint construction and testing (4)Anchoring with peripheral joints (5)Acceptance (6)Protective layer construction
Technical points
1, a large volume of geomembrane laying is suitable for mechanical work, a small volume of geomembrane can be laid manually.
2、The laying direction of the geomembrane should be by the design requirements, and make the least amount of joints, and joint position parallel to the direction of tensile stress.
3, should not be too tight when laying, and should leave enough margin (about 1.5%) to splice and adapt to temperature changes. It should be paved with pressure and put 1 20-40㎏ sandbag every 2-5 meters at the corners of the membrane to prevent the wind from blowing.
4、The connection between the geomembrane and surrounding buildings is anchored by expansion bolts and steel plate pressure bars. At the corners, attention should be paid to cutting the geomembrane appropriately to ensure proper connection with the surrounding buildings.
5、Before welding, do a small sample welding test, according to the test results of the welding equipment adjusted to the state.
6、When welding, the welding quality should be observed at any time. According to the actual construction situation, adjust the welding equipment to the working condition at any time.
7, the nodes formed between geomembranes should be T-shaped, not cross-shaped, T-shaped nodes should be used at the base material to make up the scar, the scar size of 300 mm × 300 mm. The right angle of the scar should be rounded.
8、When there is false welding and leakage welding, the weld must be cut, and the cut part should be patched by a hot melt extrusion welding machine.
Precautions
1、Construction personnel must wear non-nailed shoes or rubber-soled shoes, prohibited in the geomembrane arbitrarily stepped on.
2、After paving the film, the protective layer should be constructed in time to prevent the deformation of the geomembrane caused by heat contraction and the aging of the geomembrane caused by ultraviolet radiation.
3, prohibit contact with chemical substances that can cause changes in the performance of polyolefin, to avoid permanent deformation of the geomembrane. 4, machinery shall not be directly crushed geomembrane surface.
Design material selection
According to the nature of the project, category, application parts, conditions of use, design requirements, etc. to choose the appropriate types and specifications.
Determine the thickness of the geomembrane according to the strength of the water pressure requirement of engineering design, as well as exposure, burial pressure, climate, service life, and other application conditions.
Determine the width and length of the geomembrane according to the actual size of the project, area, construction conditions, construction capacity, and the principle of joints during construction.
When the grass-roots level is a concrete structure, it is appropriate to choose filament non-woven composite geomembrane that can be directly bonded on the cement base.
Highway application in the seepage control treatment, seepage control in the lower part of the central divider is generally used in one cloth and one membrane 200-300g/m2.
