In this April/May issue of Geosynthetics magazine, our feature authors tackle three very different uses of geosynthetics with in-depth examination, testing and even a new design method. In the introduction to their article, "Modular Geosynthetics Construction," E. Silva, T. D. Stark and Duff Simbeck discuss the benefits of a specific manufacturing process for geomembranes. They write, "This article focuses on the use of modular construction for geosynthetics. The same benefits of using modular construction for buildings can be realized with geosynthetics. For example, installation of a factory-fabricated geomembrane can occur simultaneously with site work, allowing the project to be completed in as much as one-half of the time required for traditional field fabrication." |
