Geosynthetics exclusively are human made new construction materials which have influenced the construction in the areas of geotechnical engineering, transportation engineering, environmental engineering, and hydraulics engineering, etc. The families of Geosynthetics include Geotextiles, Geogrids, Geomembranes, Geonets, Geosynthetic clay liners, Geopipes, Geocomposites, and Geofoams. Geosynthetic materials perform seven major functions: separation, reinforcement, filtration, drainage, liquid barrier, protection, and erosion control. For a particular application design, the ultimate decision usually take one of the three directions: design by cost and availability, design by function, and design by specification. Since the new materials are widely used in various construction, design by specification is very common and exclusively important when dealing with public agencies. The objective of the paper is to review the current common used CNS, ASTM, and GRI test standards for Geotextiles, Geomembranes, and Geogrids.
