How to Choose the Right Geosynthetics for a Project
It's simple to become confused and mistake one form of geosynthetic for another when dealing with an umbrella phrase that encompasses so many different product types with drastically varied characteristics and functions. A project that is otherwise well-designed may fail as a result of making this error. The addition of an impermeable geomembrane containment layer may potentially hasten soil loss or bank collapse in loose soil situations when a reinforcement grid is necessary to prevent the soil from collapsing. In other situations, the entire structure may be at risk of failing if a certain geosynthetic is used without a backup material. Use these guidelines to ensure that the type and quantity of geosynthetics you select are appropriate for your particular project.
