ASTM International’s Committee D35 on Geosynthetics will next meet 8-11 June 2010 at the Renaissance St. Louis Grand and Suites Hotel in St. Louis, Missouri during the June 2010 Committee Week. Committee D35.04 on Geosynthetic Clay Liners, invites feedback from all professionals in the field in regards to two key geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) standards:
- D5890-06 Standard Test Method for Swell Index of Clay Mineral Component of Geosynthetic Clay Liners
- D5891-02(2009) Standard Test Method for Fluid Loss of Clay Component of Geosynthetic Clay Liners
Share your experience. Are revisions to these standards needed? Committee and subcommittee member Kent von Maubeuge encourages your feedback and your participation in both Committee D35 and Subcommittee D35.04’s discussions. Send your GCL standards feedback to Kent at kvmaubeuge@naue.com or call +49 5743 41 228.
