This detailed presentation helps designers to specify drainage layers in soil and structural applications by avoiding the use of traditional drainage aggregates naturally resourced. There are specific details of the manufacture methods of different geosynthetics; what are the behaviours/performances of those and the latest available design codes of practice/technical notes. By the end of the session a good level of competence and awareness will be achieved to design a geosynthetics drainage composites in many civil infrastructure applications i.e. under roads/railways; in soil embankments; in landfills; in subgrade structures; in sports pitches etc.
