Uniform Section (US) Concrete Linings
Uniform Section (US) Concrete Linings are similar to traditional concrete slope paving. They create a solid, high-quality concrete lining with a relatively low hydraulic resistance and uniform cross-section. Uniform Section linings are used to reduce the infiltration or exfiltration of aggressive waste and chemical fluids into or out of open channels and basins. They are also used to reduce exfiltration in arid regions where open channels and basins require watertight linings.
Uniform Section Concrete Linings are resistant to leachate and most chemicals. They protect geosynthetic liners from mechanical damage, exposure to UV light, and freeze-thaw cycles. These self-supporting, high-strength linings permit construction on steep side slopes and replace the conventional use of clay or sand as liner protection. Placement of the forms and concrete filling can be performed without the use of equipment on the liner. The tensile strength and abrasion resistance of the fabric protect the liner from the pumped concrete.
