Experimental Evaluation of the Sustainable Performance of Filtering Geotextiles in Green Roof Systems: Tensile Properties and Surface Morphology After Long-Term Use
Original research · free full-paper access · authors credited
Research overview
Examines filter geotextiles after five years in green roofs using tensile tests and microscopy. Retained tensile strength does not rule out pore blockage; the tested roof systems do not establish performance for every drainage application.
