Full Description

Geosynthetics, primarily made from synthetic polymers, provide efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions for civil, geotechnical, and environmental challenges. Enhancing infrastructure performance with soil and rock, they are integral to global construction standards. Beyond civil engineering, their applications extend to mining, agriculture, and aquaculture. This book explores the principles, properties, and applications of geosynthetics, offering tailored solutions for innovative and sustainable infrastructure development.

This updated second edition of An Introduction to Geosynthetic Engineering provides a comprehensive introduction to geosynthetics, meeting the needs of senior undergraduate and postgraduate students, practising engineers, and professionals. It includes expanded content, updated chapters, new sections, detailed site photographs, revised standards and guidelines, additional examples, and practice questions. Tailored to support both learning and practical application, this textbook is an essential resource for understanding and utilizing geosynthetics in sustainable infrastructure development.
