CARPI Delivers Waterproofing Solution for Waimea Dam – A first in a Decade
This solution combined intensive grouting of the rock with a flexible Carpi Tech waterproof synthetic liner, or geomembrane, to provide a blanket over the approach channel floor and walls, so water can’t seep under the spillway. Beneath the geomembrane is a bedding foundation that has been compartmentalised to isolate and monitor any signs of leakage.
“It’s a material used overseas to seal leaking dams that had only been used once before in New Zealand, in 2013, on part of the Tekapo Hydropower Canal
