Liner Protection
Liner protection is the use of a geotextile to protect an impermeable geomembrane liner from damage and puncture during installation and while in operation.
Liner protection is an important part of any geomembrane installation. By protecting the geomembrane from damage, geotextiles can help to ensure the long-term performance of the liner.
Here are some of the benefits of using liner protection:
Increased liner life
Reduced maintenance costs
Improved safety
Reduced environmental impact
Here are some of the most common types of geotextiles used for liner protection:
Woven geotextiles are made by interlacing two or more sets of yarns. They are strong and durable and can withstand high loads.
Nonwoven geotextiles are made by bonding together a web of fibers. They are flexible and easy to install and can be used in a variety of applications.
Needle-punched geotextiles are made by bonding together a web of fibers using needles. They are strong and durable and can withstand high loads.
Here are some of the installation considerations for liner protection:
The geotextile should be installed in a smooth, wrinkle-free manner.
The geotextile should be properly anchored to prevent it from moving.
The geotextile should be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your liner protection is installed properly and will provide long-term protection for your geomembrane.
