Geocomposite Capillary Barrier Drain for Limiting Moisture Changes in Pavement Subgrades and Base Courses
This project determined the effectiveness of a geocomposite capillary barrier drain (GCBD) system in preventing pavement damage by controlling moisture movement in pavement subgrade and base course. A number of geotextiles were evaluated for their suitability as a transport layer, and a multifilament, woven fiberglass geotextile, denoted as TGLASS, was identified as the most suitable material. Further development is needed before the technology can be implemented and a more economical transport layer than the one tested in this project would make GBCD more affordable and implementable.
