Abstract
The primary goal of an owner when constructing geomembrane liners at waste disposal facilities is the long-term protection of the environment. This paper presents the concerns of one owner regarding how to assure that the seams which join the geomembrane sheets provide the same level of integrity as the parent material. Discussions of concerns regarding seam strength, ductility, chemical compatibility, installation, testing, and resistance to stress cracking are presented. Also presented are procedures specified by one owner which we feel will help alleviate some of the prior mentioned concerns.
