Early background and history of geotextiles

Geosynthetic Institute, Folsom, PA, United States Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, United States [Pg.3]

At the outset it should also be mentioned that others have presented overview papers on early geotextile history, including Rankilor (1981), Jones (1982), Giroud (1986), John (1987), PUarczyk (2000), Holtz (2004), and Heerten (2015). Their information will be used and cited accordingly. [Pg.3]

However, this review will be somewhat different from the others in that geotextile developments in Europe (initially with nonwoven fabrics) will be presented first, with developments in America (initially with woven fabrics) following. The interchange between Europe and America up until 1977 will then be described along with developments in several other countries. Almost immediately after the first international [Pg.3]

Heerten (2015), in his historical review about geosynthetics in general and geotextiles in particular, suggests almost parallel efforts in The Netherlands, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria, and Denmark. The competition was indeed harsh and focused on different fabric types and even different polymers for the same [Pg.4]
