Canal waterproofing

Explanation

• Geomembranes : These welded waterproof membranes prevent water from seeping into the ground or flooding the canal, ensuring effective water retention.
• Waterproofing membranes : Made from materials like bitumen, polyurethane, or polymers, these membranes form a protective barrier that prevents moisture and water from causing damage to the canal.
• Canal lining : Lining the canal minimizes seepage and protects against erosion caused by floodwaters.

Benefits

• Protects canals from flooding and water loss.
• Shields the canal structure from moisture-related damage.
• Reduces water seepage through the canal’s sides and bed.
• Prevents erosion and scouring along the canal’s sides and base.
