Abstract
The results of laboratory and in situ permeability tests can be used to predict the total leakage rate of a soilbentonite or clay liner. This prediction, however, ignores the large influence that minor defects may have on the total leakage. In Quebec, hundreds of municipal wastewater ponds have been filled with water to measure their total leakage rate before approval. The design criteria and the equations to be used for the full-scale performance test are briefly reviewed with their capacities to detect hydraulic deficiencies. Several case histories are presented to illustrate various problems: excessive leakage of a stable soilbentonite mix, washing of bentonite in a soilbentonite mix, internal erosion of a natural clay liner through an inadequate sand filter, and effects of freezing on the total leakage of a clay liner.Key words: liner, clay, bentonite, permeability, performance, full-scale test

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
