What is ISO/TR 18228‑1 about?
ISO/TR 18228‑1 is part one of the multi-series standard on design using geosynthetics.
ISO/TR 18228‑1 provides general considerations to support the guidance to geotechnical and civil engineers for design using geosynthetics provided in the subsequent parts of the ISO/TR 18228 series.
Who is ISO/TR 18228‑1 for?
ISO/TR 18228‑1 on design using geosynthetics is useful for:
- Civil engineers
- Geotechnical engineers
Why should you use ISO/TR 18228‑1?
ISO/TR 18228‑1 provides guidance for designs using geosynthetics for soils and below ground structures in contact with natural soils, fills, and asphalt.
ISO/TR 18228‑1 provides you guidance for short-term properties, long-term properties, and external loadings. This will improve your designs using geosynthetics.
ISO/TR 18228‑1 lays out local design requirements for Europe, the USA, Hong Kong, Australia, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. ISO/TR 18228‑1 helps you comply with local building regulations.
