Editors:
Geotextile encapsulated sand elements are three-dimensional systems manufactured
The use of geosystems has the advantage that local material can be applied and that
no (expensive) quarry stone needs to be extracted and transported from the mountains
to the site. Compared to traditional construction methods (with quarry stone) the
application of geotextile sand filled elements may add considerable operational
advantages to the execution of marine works and may offer attractive financial
opportunities. In the application of geotextile encapsulated sand elements however,
proper attention should be paid to the laying down of different responsibilities of the
parties in the contract.
Geosystems
elements are distinguished, each with specific properties: geo-bags, geo-mattresses,
geotextile tubes and geotextile containers. The focus is on the use of geosystems filled
with sand as a construction in river and coastal engineering. Geosystems filled with
sludge are not covered. The chapters “Introduction” and “General design aspects”
are followed by four chapters of the same structure dealing with the various systems.
Each of these four chapters starts with a general description and applications and
ends with a calculation example. Design aspects are dealt with in the remaining
paragraphs.

Geosystems. Design Rules and Applications is based on research commissioned
