چکیده
This paper will explain the reinforced structure and key characteristics that make bituminous geomembranes (BGM) an interesting option for waterproofing hydraulic works in hot climate areas. For illustrating this, review some case studies where BGM was chosen due to its characteristics. In dam application, a project of dike Saday (Djibouti) rock fill (42-m high) France be explained. irrigation reservoir canal lining, work Goudel on laterite soil Niamey (both Niger) described proving use dry tropical climates. also construction raw water storage ponds Pirque (Chile) city Santiago’s potable system. A last large Nagpur (India) Pench canal, located center India, convey from River surrounding agricultural The old originally made concrete, collapsed seepage swelling clay underneath.
