2 Global Coitment to Quality Global Synthetics with their German partner, Naue GmbH, are now able partner, Naue GmbH, have strong coitments to quality and transparency in all our dealings with our suppliers Markings Global Synthetics with their German to offer the heavyweight nonwoven geotextile, Secutex into the Australian market. Secutex geotextile is and customers. manufactured in a range of fabric mass Global Synthetics is a 100 Australian demanding coastal, environmental and owned company that is totally coitted transportation applications. to providing the Australian market with the best possible range of geosynthetics products to suit the widest possible range from 600g/m to 00g/m for the most Secutex is marked, ensuring that the property values quoted are in compliance of engineering applications. with legislative requirements of the Naue GmbH are a German specialist checks on assessments of property values geosynthetics manufacturing company have been made. that has a coitment to product development and engineering innovation in their field of engineering. European Union and that the necessary markings and the provided data allows the purchaser to make informed decisions about the statistical variance of data provided by the manufacturer and provides for a basis of fair comparison between products.

Unfortunately, in the application areas of coastal and landfill works using geosynthetics, there is little formal guidance in this Australian market particularly with respect to appropriate test methods and formal specification values appropriate to these specific applications. Global Synthetics has proactively decided that by providing a data sheet with property values determined by appropriate ISO test methods and marked product, designers can best make use of the recoendations of European environmental and coastal engineers and researchers in a direct and unambiguous manner. values with the deviation noted for each test property and for each grade Characteristic Opening Size (O90) EN ISO Permeability Normal to Plane (VH) EN ISO 1105 m/s.0 E E-.5 E E- Unit of Secutex geotextile quoted.

4 Landfill Geotextiles- Needle Detected Secutex Design Method according to GDA E -9 and Geomembranes are often used in civil engineering applications to create a hydraulic EN : 0 0 barrier. Their basic function is to remain impervious over the design life of the project. The design is based on a performance test (as shown in Fig.). However, mechanical stresses induced by confined materials could produce a deformation of the geomembrane and in critical situations, could ultimately puncture the geomembrane causing leakage of potentially harmful contained contaminants into groundwater. 1 Local Elongation 10 Geomembrane Legend: Thickness Reduction 4 geosynthetics engineering to reduce the occurrence of local stresses and thus to control potential puncture of the liner function of the landfill depth. be placed.

Typical applications would include coastal defence works, rock revetment works along waterways and bridge protection structures. Such treatments can involve the placement of large armour rock that may weigh many whilst the mass of the fabric allows for a high level of toughness and resistance to damage during rock placement.
