The IGS Geosynthetics Handbook, First Edition provides an overview of geosynthetic materials and their related design uses, quality, and installation considerations in major applications in infrastructure. The handbook has been developed for educational and referential purposes for the general civil engineering community, including professionals of all experience levels, engineering educators, and students. Expert lead authors and peer review have been utilized. The handbook is published by the not-for-profit International Geosynthetics Society (IGS), with the support of the IGS Education Committee and the IGS Foundation. The book is not intended to be read cover to cover. Rather, it is intended to be a source of frequent reference and seen as a living document. Future editions will update these chapters and provide new chapters focused on other areas of engineering. Chapters of the IGS Geosynthetics Handbook, First Edition provide an introduction to geosynthetics and related support systems. In addition, the handbook addresses geosynthetic engineering in roads and pavements, subsurface drainage, erosion and sediment control, reinforced soil systems, barriers in seepage control systems, and environmental protection (e.g. waste containment). George R. Koerner, PhD, PE is the edition’s editor. Contributing authors include Barry Christopher, Eli Cuelho, Chris Lawson, R. Kerry Rowe, Joel Sprague, Jay Sprague, and Kent von Maubeuge.
