TY JOUR TI Irrigation canals covered with innovative concrete bed and adaptive ways of their operation eliminating water losses KW The relevance of the study is to expand and obtain new theoretical knowledge on the application of adaptive technologies of irrigation canals operation depending on the type of facing materials KW namely geosynthetic materials. The object of the study is a concrete canvas. The analysis included methods of empirical and experimental-theoretical level. The work considered and compared such cladding materials as geomembrane KW bentonite mats and concrete cladding as a traditional cladding material. The given theoretical provisions of the work allow for the possibility of applying small mechanized equipment when carrying out works on cleaning the canal beds covered with concrete canvas from sediments JO Melioration and Water Management AU Abdrazakov, F.K.
