Long-term stability of two type geogrids were evaluated. Membrane drawn type geogrid showed the exponential type tensile property and textile type geogrid showed the rapid increase of tensile property closer toward the break point. Accelerated creep test was done for textile type geogrid but not done for membrane drawn type geogrid because of its thermal property. Creep strain for membrane drawn type geogrid was larger than the ultimate tensile strain by tensile test and reduction factor by creep deformation of textile type geogrid was smaller than that of membrane type geogrid.

Long-term stability of two type geogrids were evaluated. Membrane drawn type geogrid showed the exponential type tensile property and textile type geogrid showed the rapid increase of tensile property closer toward the break point. Short term accelerated creep test was done for textile type geogrid but done for membrane drawn type geogrid at ambient temperature because of its thermal property. Creep strain for membrane drawn type geogrid was larger than the ultimate tensile strain by tensile test. Reduction factor by creep deformation of textile type geogrid was smaller than that of membrane type geogrid. From this result, it was seen that the textile type geogrid is more stable than membrane type geogrid by creep deformation.

Installation damage of 3 types of geogrids were evaluated with compaction condition. This experimental test was in accordance with ENV ISO 10722-1. Tensile strength of geogrids were decreased with number of cyclic compaction loading without regard to kind of filled material and it was seen that strength decrease tendency showed the dependence on geogrid type. Woven and warp-knitted type geogrids showed the bigger decrease of tensile strength than welded type geogrids.

Rubber related geosynthetics(GS) as reinforcement and water barrier materials were manufactured by thermal bonding method and examined the their performance for applications to civil and environmental engineering fields. The spunbonded polyester nonwoven, fiber glass mat and fabric type geogrid of a high tenacity polyester filament were used as matrix and polyester film, elastomeric bitumen with SBS polymer and asphalt were used as reinforcements to manufacture the rubber related geosynthetics. A fiber glass mat and geogrid matrix GS showed more excellent mechanical properties and nonwoven and elastomeric bitumen matrix showed the more excellent permittivity. Softening points of rubber and asphalt mixture showed no difference and dimensional stability at high temperature, $120^{\circ}C$, represented no significant shrinkage. Resistance to ultraviolet of rubber related geosynthetics showed no visible alteration.
