Book Advances in Geosynthetic Clay Liner Technology

Download or read book Advances in Geosynthetic Clay Liner Technology written by Robert E. Mackey and published by ASTM International. This book was released on 2004 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soon after the inception of ASTM D35.04 Subcommittee on Geosynthetic Clay Liners, the first symposium on Testing and Acceptance Criteria for Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCLs), STP 1308, was held on 29 January 1996, in Atlanta, Georgia. The intention of the symposium was to bring together the current knowledge and understanding regarding this relatively new product used in containment systems. Since that symposium, numerous GCL standards have been developed along with a greater appreciation of the product's capabilities and limitations. ASTM D35 determined it was time to assess the current state of GCL technology to better address possible revisions of the present ASTM GCL standards and determine what new standards will be required in the future.

Book Geosynthetics  Leading the Way to a Resilient Planet

Download or read book Geosynthetics Leading the Way to a Resilient Planet written by Giovanni Biondi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 2826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Geosynthetics (12 ICG), held in Roma, Italy, 17-21 September 2023. About 750 Authors - Academics, Researchers, Students, Practitioners, Contractors and Manufacturers – contributed to the peer-reviewed papers of this volume, which includes the Giroud lecture, the Bathurst lecture, the Rowe lecture, four keynote lectures and 296 technical papers. The content of these proceedings illustrates the sustainable use of geosynthetics in a variety of innovative as well as consolidated applications. After the sustainability implications in the correct use of geosynthetics, the ability to overcome the natural events effects, often related to the climate change, and to adequately afford the human activities (as the increase of pollution) forced to refer to a new keyword: Resiliency. The 12 ICG intends to become the base for the next step, hence the conference theme is 'Geosynthetics, Leading the Way to a Resilient Planet'. The conference topics, through general and parallel sessions, invited presentations and keynote lectures, address the most recent developments in geosynthetic engineering, and stimulate fruitful technical and scientific interaction among academicians, professionals, manufacturers, students. The 12 ICG proceedings contain a wealth of information that could be useful for researchers, practitioners and all those working in the broad, innovative and dynamic field of geosynthetics.

Book excerpt: Written by an author with more than 25 years of field and academic experience, Soil Improvement and Ground Modification Methods explains ground improvement technologies for converting marginal soil into soil that will support all types of structures. Soil improvement is the alteration of any property of a soil to improve its engineering performance. Some sort of soil improvement must happen on every construction site. This combined with rapid urbanization and the industrial growth presents a huge dilemma to providing a solid structure at a competitive price. The perfect guide for new or practicing engineers, this reference covers projects involving soil stabilization and soil admixtures, including utilization of industrial waste and by-products, commercially available soil admixtures, conventional soil improvement techniques, and state-of-the-art testing methods. Conventional soil improvement techniques and state-of-the-art testing methods Methods for mitigating or removing the risk of liquefaction in the event of major vibrations Structural elements for stabilization of new or existing construction industrial waste/by-products, commercially available soil Innovative techniques for drainage, filtration, dewatering, stabilization of waste, and contaminant control and removal

Book Hydraulic Testing of Multi Component Geosynthetic Clay Liners

Download or read book Hydraulic Testing of Multi Component Geosynthetic Clay Liners written by Kent P. von Maubeuge and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multi-component geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) are a new variation of GCLs or GBR-Cs (Geosynthethic Clay Barriers--CEN and ISO definition) and are fast growing in the current sealing applications. During the manufacturing process, the "classic" geosynthetic clay liners are combined with either an adhered film, coating, or membrane that can decrease the hydraulic conductivity of the product but can also add other features. ASTM D5887 [2009, "Standard Test Method for Measurement of Index Flux through Saturated Geosynthetic Clay Liner Specimens Using a Flexible Wall Permeameter," Annual Book of ASTM Standards, ASTM International, West Conshohocken, PA] is the standard test method for hydraulic testing/testing the index flux through saturated geosynthetic clay liner specimens using a flexible wall permeameter. It gives guidance for testing procedures and apparatus but it is noted in the standard that it may not be applicable to GCL products with geomembrane backing(s). In this paper, results will be shown of the testing of the different multi-component geosynthetic clay liners using exactly the ASTM D5887 procedure. Further modifications will be discussed to allow testing according to this method and suggestions for a new method will be presented.
