This technical specification describes a method for testing the resistance of a geosynthetic barrier to root penetration. Such resistance is a requirement for many uses of geosynthetic barriers.
Part of the geosynthetic barrier is placed in the soil where the seeds are planted. After six to eight weeks, the geosynthetic barrier is examined to see if the roots of the young plants have penetrated.
After six weeks (eight weeks in winter), empty the pots and inspect the top and bottom surface of the geosynthetic barrier for roots in or through.
