1RO:34-2011 7.22 Provision of drainage composite Prefabricated drainage composite (plastic spacer encased between impermeable layer of low density polyethylene Geomembrane and Non-woven geotextile) of adequate thickness over the full width of embankment is recommended as a capillary cutoff. This will avoid the additional sand blanket, which is generally provided in any other method of capillary cutoff. 7.221 Properties of drainage composite for capillary cutotts: Geotextile properties Apparent Opening Size - EN ISO 12956 2 $0.15mm Tensile strength - EN ISO 10319 28 kN/m Permittvity - EN ISO 11058 2100 iim?.sec Properties of Drainage Net Mass per unit area - EN |SO 9864 2410 gim?
