Once the test specimens were prepared, a cut of 2 cm high was made in the lower part of the base, which represents a crack or joint under the location of the geosynthetic material; then, the specimens were cut perpendicular to the created "crack", thereby obtaining three specimens of 10 cm width by 30 cm length for each system to be tested.
Una vez confeccionadas las probetas, se les realiza un corte en la parte inferior de la base de 2 cm de altura, la que representa una fisura o junta bajo la ubicación del material geosintético, luego se procede a cortarlas en forma transversal a la "fisura" creada, quedando así tres probetas de dimensiones de 10 cm de ancho por 30 cm de largo para cada sistema a ser ensayado.
