BIS Certification For Geotextiles Used as Protection (or cushioning) Materials IS 16090:2013
In today's competitive landscape, maintaining market presence without a certified, high-quality product can be challenging. Obtaining a BIS license may also be essential for selling products in the Indian market. To achieve BIS certification and ensure product quality, manufacturers must adhere to the specified Indian standards.
Let's delve deeper into at IS 16090:2013 For Geotextiles Used as Protection (or cushioning) Materials .
HDPE geomembrane liners are the top choice for a variety of lining projects due to their resistance to numerous solvents and their widespread use globally. These liners are widely used in applications such as aquaponics, ponds, troughs, bioswales, canals, drainage systems, mud runners, slip-n-slides, and various other water retention and containment projects. Additionally, HDPE geomembranes serve as root barriers, piping systems, and slip sheets.
Indian Standard IS 16090:2013
Indian Standard IS 16090:2013 specifies the requirements for geosynthetics geotextiles, specifically used as protection or cushioning materials.
-
IS 16090:2013 covers needle-punched non-woven geotextiles used to protect HDPE geomembranes from construction and operational damage. These geotextiles are typically applied adjacent to (above and/or below) a geomembrane in various settings, including solid waste landfills and liquid impoundments, under different load, sub-grade, and cover soil conditions.
-
The standard outlines the physical, mechanical, and endurance properties required for geotextiles to ensure adequate protection.
-
This specification is intended for material purchasing. It is recommended to review the design and application of geotextiles for specific projects. Note that this standard does not cover construction or design specifications; protection and cushioning are site-specific design issues to be addressed by engineers.
-
The standard establishes minimum requirements for geotextiles to provide tensile reinforcement and durability against installation stresses. Proper elevation, location, and orientation according to plans and specifications are crucial.
-
Design, installation, and construction guidelines for geotextiles are detailed in a separate Indian Standard.
-
By adhering to IS 16090:2013, you ensure that your geotextiles meet the necessary quality standards for effective protection of geomembranes in various applications.
