Abstract
The present disclosure describes systems and methods for affixing one or more geomembrane sheets to a concrete slab. The systems and methods can include an affixing member that adheres to the one or more geomembrane sheets. The affixing member can further include gripping extensions that adhere to the concrete slab. The gripping extensions can include distal ends embedded into the concrete slab. The gripping extensions can be integral with the affixing member. The geomembrane sheets may be used in the construction of a building to prevent vapor transmission through a concrete foundation from the supporting substrate.
