Given their versatility, geosynthetics are a vital material in all aspects of civil engineering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first section of the book covers the fundamentals of geosynthetics. Chapters discuss the design and durability of geosynthetics together with their material properties and international standards governing their use. Building on these foundations, part two examines the various applications of geosynthetics in areas such as filters, separators, landfills, barriers and foundation materials. The book concludes by reviewing methods of quality assurance and the service life of geosynthetics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by an international team of contributors, Geosynthetics in civil engineering is an essential reference to all those involved in civil engineering.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses the fundamentals of geosynthetics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamines various applications in areas such as filters, separators, landfills and foundation materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReviews quality assurance and the service life of geosynthetics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elsevier Science","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47161157320944,"sku":"9781845692490","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781845692490_p0.jpg?v=1763745451","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781845692490","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
