Latex membranes are commonly used in geotechnical applications in Bangladesh to prevent contamination of soil samples during laboratory testing, particularly in tests like triaxial shear strength, consolidation, and permeability. These flexible, impermeable membranes help maintain the integrity of undisturbed soil samples by protecting them from moisture loss or external contaminants. In Bangladesh, where soil conditions can range from soft clays to sandy soils, latex membranes are essential for obtaining accurate, reliable test results, which are crucial for infrastructure projects such as foundation design, road construction, and flood protection.
