Opis

Clay geosynthetic barriers are geocomposites consisting of geosynthetics and betonite. They are used in various applications such as landfill cover systems, groundwater protection below roads and railways, sealing barriers in tunnels and water canals, etc. This work discusses the durability and lifetime aspects of clay geosynthetic barriers related to the synthetic yarns and fibres.

Clay geosynthetic barriers are most frequently used in environmental areas, such as landfill cover systems. This work discusses the durability and lifetime aspects of clay geosynthetic barriers related to the synthetic yarns and fibres.
