Geotextile
It is a synthetic fabric used in civil engineering and infrastructure projects, typically manufactured from polyester or polypropylene fibers. It is characterized by its ability to perform separation, filtration, reinforcement, protection, and drainage, making it an essential element in roadwork, foundations, slope protection, and soil insulation.
📐 Main Types
Woven: High tensile strength; used for soil reinforcement and stabilization.
Non-Woven: Higher flexibility; used for filtration and drainage.
✅ Geotextile Features
Resistant to erosion and moisture.
Enhances soil stability and prevents slippage.
Reduces water seepage and improves insulation performance.
Easy to install and available in various weights and lengths.
🏗️ Common Applications
Road and bridge projects.
Foundation and slope protection.
Insulation of tanks and manholes.
Soil reinforcement in sandy or clayey areas.
