FGI CQA Course & Certification Part 2: Subgrade Preparation & Inspection

Part 2 of the 5-Part CQA Series will focus on subgrade preparation for flexible geomembranes. This course will describe the requirements for subgrade preparation before a flexible geomembrane is deployed, such as maximum rock size allowed, presence of water, degree of compaction, moisture content, compactive effort, and smooth rolling the surface before geomembrane install
