Role of Geosynthetics in Civil Engineering

Geosynthetics are natural or polymeric material used with soil, rock or any other related building materials. Geosynthetics have entirely changed the way civil engineering, especially geotechnical engineering, is practised. Geosynthetics gives Innovative solutions to solve severe problems economically and expediently. Geosynthetics enables the use of local materials, i.e., sustainable solutions. Many manufacturing companies around the
