ATTACHMENT 1
1. DESIGN OF GEOSYNTHETIC CLAY LINER
The conceptual design proposal given below is based on Polyfelt Technical

Training Manual on Containments. Reference shall be made to this manual at all
time on the equations used.
1.1 Design Parameters

Soil cover density (assumed) = 18 kN/m3
Height of soil cover = 0.5m
Slope Inclination = 1:2.0
1.2 Design Analysis
1.2.1 Determine required peel strength of GCL
Using Technical Training Manual, From Figure B
Required Peel Strength as a function of soil covering and slope inclination,

Fv req = 10 N/10cm
1.2.2 Determine required GCL grade
Required GCL peel strength = 10 N/10cm
Select Enviromat 100, Peel Strength = 27 N/10cm;
F.S. for peel strength = 27 / 10 = 2.7; OK.
Adopt Enviromat 100 GCL for lining.
