Discussion Thread on Geomembrane Holes
Installation damage and placement of cover material (soil or aggregate) still accounts for approximately 75% of holes in geomembranes. Of the remaining 25% of geomembrane leaks, approximately 65% occur at extrusion welds at “T” and “Y” joints; and approximately 35% of the geomembrane damage is due to over-heating during welding and melt-throughs of wedge welds. Good practice requires that these “T” and “Y” joints are extrusion welded as typically is done and best practice requires an additional “patch” extrusion welded over the welded joints.
