A guide for specifying drainage geocomposites
April 1st, 2020
By Lisa L. Damiano and Eric S. Steinhauser In September 2017, ASTM International released its Standard Guide for Specifying Drainage Geocomposites (ASTM D7931). The standard provides a guideline for calculating engineering properties related to drainage geocomposites, specifically allowable flow rate, associated reduction factors and shear strength properties. In basic terms, it codified design procedures so […]
History of geosynthetics use on national forest roads
June 1st, 2017
Introduction The objectives of this article are to document the long history of geosynthetic materials used in the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service and other rural roads, to document the many creative and useful ways geosynthetics have been used, and to promote the cost-effective uses of geosynthetics in road projects today, particularly on […]
