This publication contains papers presented at the symposium Testing and Performance of Geosynthetics in Subsurface Drainage held in June of 1999. The symposium was sponsored by ASTM Committee D 35 on Geosynthetics and Committee D 18 on Soil and Rock in cooperation with The National Transportation Research Board (Committees A2K06 and A2K07).
The effectiveness of subsurface drainage in prolonging the service life of a pavement system has been the subject of discussion for many years across several disciplines involved in the planning, designing, construction, and maintenance of pavement, and other engineered systems. The purpose of the symposium was to explore the experiences of the authors in the testing and performance of geosynthetics used in subsurface drainage applications.
The symposium and this STP was divided into three sessions: Field Performance Studies, Pavement Design and Drainage, and Testing. Specific topics addressed by papers in this collection include:
* modified implanted Gradient Ratio (GR) test system
* Geocomposite Capillary Barrier Drain (GCBD)
* unsaturated flow
* capillary barrier
* lateral drainage
* Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis
* Drainage
* frost heave
* highway edge drain
* geotextile filter
* geocomposite
* Performance-Based Specification
* pavement drainage
* polyethylene toe drain
* knitted geotextile sock
* prefabricated vertical drains
