protected by concrete slab or stone revetment. Geomem⁃
                                branes on the reservoir bed and bottom of the pool shall be
                                covered by sand gravel or gravel, with a thickness of no
                                less than 30⁃40cm. In cold regions, geomembranes shall
                                be covered over quickly to prevent freezing damage. In the
                                areas above the dead water level of dam slope and reser⁃
                                voir, permanent frost prevention cover measures shall be
                                adopted. In regions with a fluctuating water level, the
                                depth of the protection layer shall be thicker, and equal
                                to the depth of frozen ground. The covering material shall
                                be selected from coarse aggregate, such as crushed
                                gravel, cobble gravel, etc. On the steeper slopes of the
                                dam and reservoir, the protective layer should not be
                                made of clay.
                           4  The peripheral connection of geomembranes shall meet the
                       following requirements:
                             1) Geomembranes shall be laid on the surrounding impervious
                                layers.
                             2) For the connection between geomembranes and the cutoff
                                wall below: If the design requires the geomembranes to be
                                connected  to  the   concrete  cutoff  wall  below,
                                geomembranes shall be embedded directly, and the em⁃
                                bedded depth shall be no less than 10 - 30cm. The
                                geomembranes shall be folded like the shape “ ”. In the
                                embedded places, concrete construction can be done as
                                the second stage concrete. When geomembranes are con⁃
                                nected directly with the rock foundation of the dam, the
                                upper weathered layer shall be cleaned up, and geomem⁃
                                branes shall go deep into the integrated impervious rock
                                foundation of 30 - 50cm, and then be embeded by
                                                                            1 2 3
