Frictional behaviour of geosynthetics and slope stability of lining systems
Studies carried out by several French laboratories on the frictional behaviour of geosynthetics in order to define a design method for slope stability of lining systems are described in the paper. The work programme, which has lasted since 1990, consisted of laboratory friction tests (large-scale shear boxes and inclined plane board) and of the improvement of an existing computer programme. The studies were focused on applications of composite structures for the lining of domestic and industrial waste disposal facilities. The soils used included rolled sand, sandy clay, and a crushed gravel. Three types of geomembranes (Bitumen; HDPE; PVC) were tested as well as three types of geogrids (with surface patterns of 1.6 to 5 mm in height). The test results are suitable to be used in trying to predict the safety factor of lining systems on slopes. In order to complete the validation of the improved computer software the research studies will be continued both in the laboratory and in the field.
