SKZ expands geosynthetics testing capacity with new high-pressure autoclaves
July 25th, 2023
Nowadays, manufacturers rely on high-quality geosynthetics that are used for many decades. The German Plastics Center (SKZ) is responding to the growing demand for a qualitative estimate of the service life of geosynthetics by expanding its testing capacity by another six to a total of 20 systems for high-pressure autoclave testing (HPAT). The great advantage […]
IISc constructs geosynthetics testing facility for better walls and roads
August 24th, 2022
A new testing facility at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) with more realistic assessment of dynamic soil properties has helped scientists in their attempt to design geosynthetics that can sustain severe earthquake conditions and also reduce the cost of construction of roads. It can also help them estimate the optimal amount of geosynthetics needed […]
