    bentonite powder with two layers of geotextiles.

    - GCL are installed by overlapping and spread bentonite powder at the overlap to create seal.

    Geotextile

    - Geotextiles are commonly produced in woven and non-woven with weight ranging from 100
    g/sq.m. to 3,000 g/sq.m.
    - Geotextiles are commonly used in geotechnical applications such as filtration, separation,
    reinforcement and protection.
    - Installation of geotextile can be by sewing or just overlapping.

    - HDPE pipes are normally produced in 6m and 12m length with diameter ranging from 32mm
    to 3,000mm.
    - They can be joined together by butt fusion weld or flanges, electro-fusion weld or
    compression joins.
