This document describes a procedure for producing mechanical damage to geotextiles and geotextile-related products due only to compaction of soil or other materials. The damage is assessed visually and by the loss of tensile strength or other reference tests used to assess the damage caused by this procedure.
The method described is a full-scale test procedure, using a range of fills and compaction methods, and for the derivation of a reduction factor for installation damage for geotextiles and geotextile-related products.
