On the Creep Reduction Factors for Geotextile Puncture Protection of Geomembranes

Abstract
This short paper presents revised information on the creep reduction factors used in the widely accepted method for geotextile mass per unit area design to prevent geomembrane puncture. The laboratory tests have been ongoing for 6-years and have not failed to date, leading to the tentative conclusion that published values of RFCR are quite conservative.
