Proceedings of Geo-Frontiers 2005, held in Austin, Texas, January 24-26, 2005. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE. This Geotechnical Special Publication included 12 papers on common soil reinforcement applications. Topics include: geosynthetic reinforcement for pavement systems; geosynthetic reinforcement for soft foundations; geosynthetic reinforcement in landfill design; and geosynthetic-reinforced soil walls and slopes. The regional views on these various applications include European, Brazilian, Japanese, Australasian, and United States perspectives.

Proceedings of Geo-Frontiers 2005, held in Austin, Texas, January 24-26, 2005. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains 32 papers on the design of slopes and retaining structures that continue to pose challenges to geotechnical engineers. These include long-term performance under static and seismic conditions and in harsh environments, issues related to use of nontraditional backfills, and the reliability of the constructed systems throughout the design life. Several challenges related to design and construction of slopes and retaining structures are addressed with the increased utilization of geosynthetics. The level of activities associated with geosynthetics reinforcement range from paved and unpaved roads to the construction of segmental retaining walls and slopes. Field and laboratory performance of retaining walls and slopes under seismic and static conditions are presented. National and international experts discuss performance of reinforced and unreinforced pavement systems, slopes and retaining structures in harsh environments and under severe conditions.

Proceedings of Geo-Frontiers 2005, held in Austin, Texas, January 24-26, 2005. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains 54 papers that address waste containment and remediation. Also included are updates for several technologies that have evolved significantly in the past decade since the publication of Geoenvironment 2000, such as bioreactor landfills and evapotranspiration final cover systems.
