Performance Comparison of Geodrain Drainage and Gravel Drainage Layers Embedded in a Horizontal Plane
Drainage materials are widely used, among other uses, in the construction of landfills. Regulations require a drainage layer in the base and a covering for the landfill. The implementation of a gravel drain requires a lot of material and financial outlays. New geocomposite materials are an alternati...
