Waterlogging — the saturation of the crop root zone with water — is one of the most common and economically damaging problems affecting agricultural land worldwide. Even a few days of waterlogging during critical…
Urban development transforms permeable natural ground into impervious surfaces — roads, roofs, car parks, paving — that shed rainfall almost entirely as surface runoff. As cities expand, the cumulative effect is a dramatic increase…
Laying geocomposite drainage sheets at the roof garden of a shopping mall construction. Special attention should be given to to direction of overlap considereng the backfill direction.

To compare with the geocomposite drainage products let’s remember the traditional drainage layers 🙂 Traditional drainage layers are made of graded granular material the granular filter prevents penetration of fines into the drain (Filtration)…
Some geocomposite drainage products may be used as lost shuttering also. The drainage composites which have a cement milk-proof layer on one side, made of PVC layer (nonwoven coated with a PP film) could…
Reduce and eliminate hydraulic pressure against structures: increase stability of geotechnical structure in case of a retaining wall reduce the weight on the structure in case of flat roofs increase stability of cover layer…
Geocomposite drainage sheets can also be used in higher depths. Photographs here shows some applications of drainage composites. They are ready to backfill. The backfill around the composites should be made very carefully because…
Now it is spring and you may want to prepare a green roof. You know roof garden does not mean a garden on the roof only. It may be top of an underground garage…
Instead of using traditional (mineral) products if we use geosynthetics materials for the capping of waste disposal areas we may have extra storage. So, to use geosynthetics has economic advantages against the traditional products.…
