Record 3 1991-03-06

English

Subject field(s)
  • Technical Textiles
  • Civil Engineering
  • Soil Mechanics (Engineering)
DEF

A woven, open-mesh reinforcing fabric made from continuous-filament yarn. Used in the reinforcement of polymeric sheeting.

CONT

Woven fabrics are used to reinforce some spread coated and some calendered geomembranes. The type of woven fabric generally used to reinforce calendered geomembranes is a scrim. A scrim is a type of open weave fabric with a low mass per unit area(ie, a "lightweight" fabric),

CONT

Open weave fabrics, used to form composite geotextiles, are sometimes referred to as scrims.

French

CONT

Géotextiles composites. Nous rassemblerons [...] sous ce type, tous les géotextiles constitués par des associations judicieuses de géotextiles «simples» : tissé, non-tissé, tricoté, fil, film, etc. [...] Nous illustrerons ci-après quelques exemples de ces géotextiles du type «composites» : [...] Géotextile non-tissé de fibres aiguilletés sur un renfort tissé : La figure 33 illustre une micrographie optique de l'état de surface (envers) du produit, sur laquelle on peut distinguer nettement le renfort tissé.

Record 4 1991-02-04

English

Subject field(s)
  • Technical Textiles
  • Civil Engineering
  • Soil Mechanics (Engineering)
CONT

Manufactured, reinforced geomembranes are made in a plant, usually by spread coating or calendering. In spread-coated geomembranes, the reinforcing fabric(woven or nonwoven) is impregnated and coated on one or both sides with the compound, either polymeric or asphaltic. In calendered reinforced geomembranes, the reinforcing fabric is usually a scrim.

OBS

[R geomembrane] An abbreviated system for identifying geomembranes consists of providing the generic name (or initials) of the base product, followed by the letter R if the geomembrane is reinforced. Examples: a PVC geomembrane; a CPE-R geomembrane.

OBS

[Supported geomembrane] ... the term "supported", sometimes used for "reinforced", is not recommended because it may create a confusion with the "supporting" soil or geotextile on which the geomembrane is resting.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Textiles techniques
  • Génie civil
  • Mécanique des sols
DEF

Géomembrane dont les caractéristiques mécaniques et/ou physiques sont améliorées par un renfort placé en son sein. (...) les renforts utilisés peuvent être fibreux ou granulaires, en matière organique ou minérale. Ils sont très fortement liés à la matrice constituant la géomembrane. Ils peuvent être répartis uniformément dans toute la masse ou localisés dans l'épaisseur. Lorsqu'ils se présentent sous forme de structures ou d'éléments continus, on les appelle armature [...) géomembrane armée).
