Over the past three to four decades the interest in geosynthetics among civil engineers has grown considerably and understanding in their correct use has improved. At the same time, significant progress has been made with the use of geosynthetics in civil engineering applications. In fact, geosynthetics have become a construction material commonly used in present-day civil engineering practice throughout the world. Fundamentals of Geosynthetic Engineering provides an overview of the basic concepts of this subject, especially meeting the requirements of students in civil engineering as well as of practising civil engineers who have not been educated on geosynthetics during their university training. All major aspects related to the field applications, including application guidelines and description of case studies, have been included with a view to generate full confidence in the engineering use of geosynthetics. Presentation and layout of the book are attractive and consistent. The book contains a large number of line drawings, sketches, graphs, photographs, and tables to explain the (basic) concepts of all the topics covered in the Work. The aim of the book is to assist all those who want to learn about fundamentals of geosynthetic engineering. Readers will find this book very lively/interactive, and they will understand the basic concepts of most of the topics by self-reading only.
