Was wondering if a standard 6mil poly laid under a concrete slab would disintegrate faster or slower than an old regular aboveground swimming pool liner?
Anyone have a take on this?
Thanks.

In absence of chemicals in the soil or the crete, The main things that would corrupt either would be UV sunlight and poking holes while walking around working on it.
The big variable in my head would be how old is the pool liner and how much has clorine weakened it or would the chlorine absorbed by it do any damage to the crete itself.
just speculative musings while bumping you up.
