A rational design approach including the following two steps is necessary for proper geotextile design: 1. Identify the mechanisms through which the geotextile is expected to perform in the considered application, and identify geotextile properties governing these mechanisms (selection of appropriate test methods to evaluate these properties would be an important part of this step; ...). 2. Determine the required values of the geotextile properties by using a method of design. 1, record 1, English, - method%20of%20design

Limite des méthodes de dimensionnement. La complexité et la diversité des problèmes rencontrés dans la construction d'ouvrages de génie civil ne permettent pas de répondre de manière simple et souvent précise au problème du dimensionnement. L'impératif majeur est d'obtenir au moindre coût un facteur de sécurité supérieur à 1 non seulement à court terme, mais également à très long terme (30 à 50 ans). Diverses démarches sont possibles pour atteindre cet objectif selon que l'on retient une approche: de théoricien appliquant des modèles de calcul; de Maître d'ouvrage (mandant), appliquant de manière stricte des normes officielles; de Maître d'œuvre (exécutant), appliquant des recommandations d'emploi. 2, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20de%20dimensionnement

Dimensionnement : Action de dimensionner [...] Dimensionner : Déterminer les dimensions ou, plus généralement, les caractéristiques fonctionnelles qu'il convient de donner à un élément mécanique, hydraulique, pneumatique ou électrique pour qu'il joue convenablement le rôle qui lui revient dans l'ensemble dont il fait partie. 3, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20de%20dimensionnement

General design (or general design method): design in terms of a reference load which the pavement must support. In practice, this method is mainly used at the level of preliminary studies or in the absence of accurate data. The reference load is evaluated in terms of the anticipated utilization of the aerodrome, the characteristics of aircraft in service or at the planning stage, and the specific role of the pavement in question. 1, record 3, English, - general%20design%20method

Dimensionnement forfaitaire (ou méthode de dimensionnement forfaitaire) : dimensionnement en fonction d'une charge de référence que la chaussée doit supporter. Pratiquement cette méthode est utilisée surtout au niveau des études préliminaires, ou en l'absence de données précises. La charge de référence est évaluée en fonction de l'utilisation prévue pour l'aérodrome, des caractéristiques des avions existants ou en projet, et du rôle particulier de la chaussée étudiée. 1, record 3, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20de%20dimensionnement%20forfaitaire

Design begins with the aircraft loading to be sustained and the subgrade strength resulting from preparation of the local soil, then provides the necessary thicknesses and quality of materials for the needed pavement structure.
