Book Description
This report presents the development of a testing protocol to measure the potential for stress cracking of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) geogrids used for soil reinforcement. The developed data demonstrate that local stress cracking in the unoriented transverse node of HDPE geogrids can occur as a result of construction-induced damage. Undamaged geogrids are not prone to stress cracking at load levels below their 100-year limiting creep load.

Long-term Durability of Geosynthetics Based on Exhumed Samples from Construction Projects
Author: Victor Elias
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Geosynthetics
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
This report presents the results of mechanical and chemical tests on 24 retrieved geosynthetics from 12 sites across the United States and provides a baseline databank of mechanical and chemical properties of many commonly used geosynthetics in transportation applications as tested by industry. It also provides a summary and synthesis of results and methods from site retrievals and comments on the significance of laboratory index testing in developing durability design protocols.

Polymer Product Failure
Author: P.R. Lewis
Publisher: iSmithers Rapra Publishing
ISBN: 9781859571927
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
Use of polymers in product design has continued to grow at a rate unrivalled by conventional materials such as metal, ceramics or glass. More polymeric materials are becoming available to the designer, and this report highlights the need for caution in new design work, for careful use of new materials, and for awareness of the product environment. An additional indexed section containing several hundred abstracts from the Rapra Polymer Library database gives useful references for further reading.
