Technology Transfer

To accomplish technology transfer FGI will:

# Answer consultant and regulatory questions about design, specification, testing, and installation of fabricated geomembranes.
# Distribute material, fabrications, and installation standards.
# Continue to publish and distribute a Technical Bulletin, press releases, and quarterly newsletter for the geosynthetics industry.
# Conduct educational seminars and short courses on fabricated geomembranes that emphasize applications of fabricated geomembranes.
# Establish and maintain an Internet site for fabricated geomembranes.
# Exhibit at various industry trade shows and conferences.
# Assist FGI members in publishing case histories, new technologies, research results, and other information.
# Provide graduate research assistants to research fabricated geomembranes; current research topics include durability in exposed applications, effect of liquid drawdown cycles on durability, floating covers, puncture resistance, subgrade preparation, and canal linings.
# Incorporate fabricated geomembrane information into undergraduate and graduate courses at the University of Illinois.
