Abstract

In the United States, the use of geosynthetics, which began in the early 1970s, has grown phenomenally. Their success comes not without some concern on the part of owners of facilities in which geosynthetics are used. One of the major concerns is about the durability of geosynthetics; this matter has necessitated investigations, both nationally and internationally, by local state, and federal governmetns, academia, manufacturers, and industry. The nine papers in this volume, which were presented at TRB's 73rd Annual Meeting in January 1994, collectively provide valuable information on the durability of geosynthetics used in various applications, methods used to test the geosynthetics, and various sources that could affect the properties of these novel materials.
