- Summary:
- Selected papers from Geo-Chicago 2016, held in Chicago, Illinois, August 14–18, 2016. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE. Geotechnical Special Publication 271 contains 99 peer-reviewed papers on landfill engineering and geosynthetics used for geoenvironmental systems. Topics include: design, testing, and evaluation of geosynthetics in geoenvironmental systems; landfill engineering; sustainable barrier materials and systems; vertical barriers for geoenvironmental applications; slopes, dikes, and embankments; ground improvement; and geoengineering of mine wastes and industrial byproducts. This GSP will be of interest to geotechnical engineers and researchers developing sustainable geosynthetics for landfill and other barrier applications.
