858.01GEOSYNTHETIC MATERIAL

Provide fabric consisting of polymeric filament or yarns such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester, polyamide, or polyvinylidene chloride. Woven slit film geotextile material is not allowed. Use fabric composed of filaments or yarns that are formed into a stable network that retain their relative position to each other. Use material that is inert to commonly encountered chemicals and meets requirements of Table 858 -01 or Table 858-02. Values in Table 858-01 and 858-02 represent average roll values. Use geosynthetics for materials included on Table 858-01 from manufacturers or suppliers that maintain compliance with the NTPEP audit program for geosynthetics. Include the NTPEP number identifying the material test results on the Certificate of Compliance. Submit the CoC a minimum of 21 days before material is incorporated into the work.

The type D4 fabric will be knit of 150 denier (min.) polyester yarn, exhibit minimum snag or “run” potential, be factory ‐applied to maintain a uniform installed weight, and conform to the outside diameter of the pipe with a snug fit throughout. 3 May be constructed using welded seams .

858.02GEOGRID

Provide a biaxial geogrid structure that is dimensionally stable and able to retain its geometry under construction stresses. Use material that is inert to commonly encountered chemicals and meets requirements of Table 858-03. Values in Table 858- 03 represent minimum average roll values.
