Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geotechnical seepage prevention technology, and in particular to a combined structure for a geomembrane support layer. Background Technology

[0002] In geomembrane seepage control systems, the design and construction quality of the support layer directly affect the service life and seepage control effect of the geomembrane.

[0003] Traditional support layers typically use fine sand as a fine protective material. However, because fine sand cannot be effectively compacted, it easily forms an uneven structural surface after construction. This results in the geomembrane not being effectively supported in the recessed areas after water is stored, leading to stress concentration, increasing the risk of puncture and bursting, and causing leakage problems.

[0004] In addition, traditional geomat drainage materials have limited drainage capacity and cannot meet the drainage needs under high water head conditions.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies often employ methods such as increasing the thickness of the fine sand layer or introducing auxiliary drainage facilities. However, these methods frequently lead to increased construction costs and extended construction periods, and fail to fundamentally resolve the problem of insufficient flatness in the fine sand layer. Therefore, a novel support layer structure is urgently needed that can both ensure the flatness of the support layer and improve drainage performance. Utility Model Content
