Geosynthetics International

Aims & Scope

An online only, rapid publication journal, Geosynthetics International – an official journal of the International Geosynthetics Society (IGS) – publishes the best information on current geosynthetics technology in research, design innovation, new materials and construction practice.

Topics covered The whole of geosynthetic materials (including natural fibre products) such as research, behaviour, performance analysis, testing, design, construction methods, case histories and field experience.

Geosynthetics International is received by all members of the IGS as part of their membership, and is published in e-only format six times a year.
