Abstract

The particular test apparatus was developed to measure the geomembrane expansion deformation under overlying water pressure and ring-restrained conditions. The geomembrane expansion deformation and failure experiment was performed and its rules were summarized. The conclusions are drawn as follows: (1) The factors that influence the geomembrane expansion deformation under overlying water pressure and ring-restrained conditions are apparatus aperture, loading rate and height of water column on the geomembrane. (2) Geomembrane bursting strength with the apparatus aperture of 100mm is greater than the 200mm. (3) Bursting strength increases as the loading rate increases. (4) Height of water column on the geomembrane is proportional to the bursting strength.
