Geotextile Separation Layer for Aggregate Base Courses

Project Information

Project ID:
FHWA-PROJ-09-0056
Project Abstract:

This research project will provide a clear quantification of the long-term benefits a pavement structure can receive, focusing specifically on the base and subgrade separation capability of geotextiles.

Goals

This project will gather saturated and unsaturated, full-scale performance properties with and without separators to define particular changes in engineering properties for performance simulations to develop lifecycle cost analyses.
