Large Containment Projects: A Quick Formula for Geomembrane Quantity

The actual slope, platform, rigidity and loss of the pool base, the slope, and the weight are used to calculate the volume and weight of the purchase area.

Project judgments and procurement conclusions

The net floor area of a rectangular pool can be calculated by the floor area + the side slope area + the platform / the firmness of the area. The side slope area must be slope length, not flat width. Purchasing area = net floor area × 1 + loss rate; theoretical weight approximation is equal to area × thickness × mm) × 0.94 kg/m2, in fact, the product density, pass and excess pounds are proportional.

Steps to landing

  1. The geometry of the partitionDo not use the irregular field as a rectangle.
  2. Calculating slope lengthCreate a size chart for each slope and platform.
  3. Adding the amount of processingThe first is the use of a single line of connecting, fastening and sealing pipes.
  4. Changing the number of volumesThe actual volume length is taken upwards and the remainder is reviewed.

Acceptance points and common risks

  • Unit of size confusionThe mix of m, mm and m2 makes mistakes even bigger.
  • Theoretical weight is over poundsThe difference between the width, the core and the packaging are not the same size.
  • Repeated calculation of lossesIf the version software already contains a link, it should not be overlapped again.
