English abstract:
Landfill engineering (waste deposits) involves the entire field of geotechnical engineering in conjunction with interdisciplinary views. An appropriate pretreatment of waste is crucial to avoid the passing-on of environmental impacts of todays landfills to future generations. Additionally, multi-barrier systems are recommended, especially in case of hazardous waste. For geotechnical stability analyses of waste deposits a comptatibility investigation of the sometimes fundamentally different shear stress-strain behaviour of waste and subsoil is recommended. Horizontal barriers commonly require composite liner systems, unless pretreated or mono-waste of low risk potential is deposed.
