Suggested Procedure6.1 To utilize a structured procedure for select

25、 be exposed,6.1.4 The types of geosynthetics that may or will be used,and6.1.5 The duration or time of use (that is, service life).6.2 With this knowledge, the designer/specifier follows thefollowing procedure:6.2.1 Identify the primary function(s) or performancecharacteristic(s), or both, to be per
