This chapter talks about geosynthetics. Geosynthetics can be used with soil, rock, earth, or other geotechnical engineering‐related materials as an integral part of a human‐made project, structure, or system. Geotextiles and geomembranes are the two largest groups of geosynthetics. The chapter discusses physical, mechanical, hydraulic and thermal properties of geotextiles, geomembranes, geogrids, geosynthetic clay liners, goefoam, and geonets. Designing for separation, and design considerations to be adopted for liners and covers, designing for reinforcement, filtration, drainage and erosion control, are explained later. The chapter ends with a brief discussion on other design applications including lightweight fills.
