Excellent- More about Durability of Geosynthetics, Second Edition
This book provides a comprehensive review of the life-limiting mechanisms of geosynthetics, testing methods, and durability improvement, with a non-technical style and useful information for engineers, scientists, and assessors.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 352 pages
Publication date: 25 September 2023
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd
This comprehensive handbook offers a thorough examination of the mechanisms that limit the lifespan of geosynthetics, the available testing methods for assessing their durability, and the strategies for enhancing their longevity. Serving as a valuable resource for engineers, it bridges the knowledge gap between these professionals and polymer scientists, providing them with essential insights into the durability and lifetime of geosynthetics. The handbook adopts a non-technical approach, avoiding complex chemical formulas and utilizing graphs, photographs, and summaries to convey its message effectively. It demonstrates how to predict the service life of geosynthetics based on the latest knowledge and offers numerical examples to support its teachings. Engineers can utilize this handbook to make informed decisions about specifying geosynthetics, scientists can employ it for extrapolations and reduction factors, and assessors can benefit from a dedicated section that outlines how to evaluate the information presented, including the inherent uncertainties associated with testing and extrapolation methods. While primarily focused on geotextiles, the handbook also includes a supplementary chapter on the use of geomembranes in landfills.
This first edition of the handbook has been recognized with the prestigious International Geosynthetics Award 2014, further testament to its significance and value in the field.
