Abstract

A method of constructing an in- ground liquid barrier in separate sections with liquid tight joints between the sections, and the barrier formed thereby are described. A barrier area is excavated and the sections 22, 24 formed therein, preferrably by initially filling the excavation with a liquid sealing slurry and sequentially displacing portions of the slurry with a liquid impermeable barrier material to form barrier sections which are mutually abutting along leaky interfaces. A bore 36 is drilled between adjacent sections in a direction generally transverse to the direction of leakage, and filled with a liquid sealing material to seal the joint. The sealing material preferrably comprises a dry, hydro-expandable bentonite composition which expands to form a slurry sealant by permitting liquid to seep between the barrier sections into the bore and contact the bentonite therein. <IMAGE>
