Geotextiles: From Design to Applications presents valuable
information on the high performance fabrics used in soil
separation, drainage, filtration, reinforcement, and cushioning.
These polymeric materials offer solutions for geoengineering and
other civil engineering specialties due to their advanced physical,
mechanical, hydraulic, and endurance properties. This important
book offers comprehensive coverage of the manufacture, functions,
properties, designs, and applications of geotextiles. Part One
begins with a chapter on the history of geotextiles, followed by
chapters giving detailed reviews of the types of fabrics and their
manufacturing processes, from resin type, to fiber extrusion, to
textile fabrication. Part Two covers the properties, behavior, and
testing of geotextiles, with Part Three focusing on applications
dealing with the specific primary functions of geotextiles. In Part
Four, chapters offer numerous general applications of geotextiles,
including those in waste containment, marine engineering,
walls/slopes, agriculture, and erosion control. Finally, the
chapters of Part Five address quality control and assurance for
geotextiles, and the increasingly important topic of
sustainability.
