Geoszintetikai

Geoszintetikai refer to geosynthetic materials used in civil engineering and geotechnical applications. These are planar products manufactured from polymeric materials, designed to be placed within or on the ground to improve its engineering properties. They are broadly categorized into several types based on their function and structure.

Geotextiles are probably the most common type, characterized by their fabric-like structure. They can be woven or non-woven and are used for separation, filtration, reinforcement, and drainage. Geogrids are polymeric materials with an open, grid-like structure, primarily used for soil reinforcement in applications like road construction, retaining walls, and slopes. Geomembranes are impermeable barriers made from polymers, typically used to contain liquids or gases, commonly found in landfills, mining operations, and water containment systems.

Other types include geonets, which are polymeric nets used for drainage, and geocomposites, which are combinations of two or more different geosynthetic types to achieve specific functions. The use of geoszintetikai has become widespread due to their ability to enhance the performance and durability of infrastructure projects, reduce construction costs, and minimize environmental impact by extending the lifespan of structures and reducing the need for traditional materials. Their selection depends on the specific project requirements, including load conditions, environmental factors, and desired lifespan.
