With the increase of extreme weather events, as those recently recorded in parts of Germany and neighboring European countries, rapid and safe reconstruction measures are required so that local residents and businesses are not restricted in the long term by infrastructural issues. In such exceptional situations, it becomes clear how important it is on the construction side for all parties involved - clients, engineering offices, suppliers and construction companies - to cooperate together so they can push ahead with reconstruction by incorporating safe solutions. During infrastructure reconstruction, geosynthetics can be used in many places to ensure rapid construction progress. For exam- ple, urgently needed temporary utility roads, construction roads and work platforms can be quickly and safely constructed with geogrids or reinforcing mesh, even in very soft soils. Temporary storage of waste and contaminated sludge is also possible with geosynthetic contaminant barriers, filters and sludge dewatering hoses to also provide the best possible protection of the environment from the effects of contaminants.
