Book Geosynthetics

Download or read book Geosynthetics written by David I. Cook and published by iSmithers Rapra Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geosynthetics often play critical roles in civil engineering and it is important that the materials in use can withstand the physical and chemical pressures of the environment. These range from resistance to leachates from landfill to resistance to root damage in soil liners, as well as standard properties such as resistance to creep, oxidation and UV light, and tensile strength. This Rapra Review Report discusses the polymers used in each category of geosynthetics, production methods, test methods and applications. The review is accompanied by around 400 abstracts from papers and books in the Rapra Polymer Library database, to facilitate further reading on this subject.

Book Engineering Criteria for Use of Geotextile Fabrics in Pavement and Railroad Construction

Download or read book Engineering Criteria for Use of Geotextile Fabrics in Pavement and Railroad Construction written by Richard H. Grau and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available literature concerning the use of geotextiles as separator mechanisms between angular granular and subgrade materials used in the construction of roadways and railroads is presented. Procedures and results of tests using a model load cart with a rolling wheel load to evaluate geotextiles are also presented. The model load cart provides a fast and excellent means of applying a large number of traffic cycles to an aggregate geotextile subgrade system in a short period of time. Criteria for selecting geotextiles to be used in road and railroad construction by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers are analyzed. A separator mechanism is generally provided between layers in the pavement system for low-volume trafficked short lifetime roadways of any geotextile, but a nonwoven, needle-punched, polyester fabric is required for long-term, high-volume usage. The fabric can weigh a minimum of 4 oz/sq yd and can transmit water laterally. Geotextiles used in railroad construction can be placed 10-12 in. below the bottom of railroad ties to minimize abrasive damage caused by full depth tamping.
