2.2 GEOCOMPOSITE PROPERTIES <br /> A. The GEOSYNTHETICS CONTRACTOR shall furnish geocomposites having <br /> properties that comply with the required property values shown in Table 02774-1. <br /> The GEOSYNTHETICS CONTRACTOR shall provide results of tests performed <br /> using the procedures listed in Table 02774-1, as well as certification that the <br /> materials meet or exceed the specified values. <br /> B. In addition to the property values listed in Table 02774-1, the geocomposites shall: <br /> 1. Retain their structure during handling,placement, and long-term service. <br /> 2. Be capable of withstanding outdoor exposure for a minimum of 15 days with <br /> no measurable deterioration. <br /> 3. Be chemically inert when immersed in the leachate from a typical sanitary <br /> landfill. <br /> 4. Geocomposite panels shall be of sufficient continuous length to cover the <br /> entire slope, including anchor trenches and runouts, without horizontal <br /> seaming. <br /> C. Geotextile shall be thermally bonded to geonet components of geocomposite material <br /> rather than chemically bonded. <br /> 2.3 MANUFACTURING QUALITY CONTROL <br /> A. The geocomposite shall be manufactured with quality control procedures sufficient <br /> for certification requirements of this section and that meet generally accepted <br /> industry standards. <br /> B. The Geocomposite Manufacturer shall sample and test the geocomposite to <br /> demonstrate that the material conforms to all requirements of this section. <br /> C. Any geocomposite sample that does not comply with this section will result in <br /> rejection of the roll from which the sample was obtained. The GEOSYNTHETICS <br /> CONTRACTOR shall replace any rejected rolls at no additional cost to the OWNER. <br /> D. If a geocomposite sample fails to meet the quality control requirements of this <br /> section, the OWNER will require that the GEOSYNTHETICS CONTRACTOR <br /> sample and test each roll manufactured in the same lot, or at the same time, as the <br /> failing roll. Sampling and testing of rolls shall continue until a pattern of acceptable <br /> test results is established. <br /> E. Additional sample testing may be performed, at the GEOSYNTHETIC <br /> CONTRACTOR's discretion and expense, to more closely identify any non- <br /> complying rolls and/or to qualify individual rolls. Sampling shall, in general, be <br /> performed on sacrificial portions of the geocomposite material such that repair is not <br /> required. <br /> FORWARD LANDFILL 02774 <br /> GEOCOMPOSITE <br /> 4 DRAINAGE NET <br />
