Geosynthetics in Pavements

The objective of this project is to provide a comprehensive reference to the pavement design engineer by presenting state-of-the-art methods and practice on the use of geosynthetics in design and construction of permanent (paved) roadways. A roadmap will be developed to identify additional work needed in terms of testing, modeling and specifications to improve the application of geosynthetic materials to pavement design and construction.
