GEOCOMPOSITE DRAINS. VOLUME II, LABORATORY DATA REPORT. FINAL REPORT

This volume presents a summary of the laboratory testing of geocomposite drains performed to develop information contained in Volume I of Geocomposite Drains. The Volume is intended to provide detailed laboratory test data on the measurement of critical properties of geocomposite drains. The volume includes a statement of objectives, typical test results, a summary of procedures and the actual laboratory data. This volume is the second in a series of two. The other in the series is: Volume I, FHWA/RD-86/171, Geocomposite Drains: Engineering Assessment and Preliminary Guidelines. See also FHWA/RD-86/168, Volume I, Prefabricated Vertical Drains: Engineering Guidelines; FHWA/RD-86/169, Volume II, Prefabricated Vertical Drains: Summary of Research Effort; and FHWA/RD-86/170, Volume III, Prefabricated Vertical Drains: Laboratory Data Report.
