GEOSYNTHETIC : GEOTEXTILES
1. Geotextiles Flow-through Fabric
2. Five Primary Functions :
a. Separation
b. Reinforcement
c. Filtration
d. Drainage
e. Protection

3. Three Classifications :
a. Woven
b. Non-Woven
c. Knitted
4. Woven Geotextiles
High Tensile Strength
High Modulus
Low Elongation

5. Non-Woven Geotextiles
High Permeability as a result of high porosity
Conformability
High Elongation
GEOSYNTHETIC : GEOTEXTILES
Geotextiles are available in a variety of polymers,
but that is a subject not covered in this class.

Primary polymers for geotextiles:
Polypropylene
Polyester

Polymers are selected for the conditions in which the geotextile is to
be placed to assure longevity.

Strong, durable and chemically inert

Resistant to ground conditions, weather and aging.
Woven
Non-woven Needle Punched
Non-woven Heat Set
Knitted

95% of new geotextiles are
made from polypropylene
Types of
Geotextiles
Woven Geotextiles
Monofilament
Slit film
Multifilament

Used in dams for filtration,
reinforcement, separation
and erosion control.
NonWoven Heat Set Geotextiles
Fibers are fused together by heat
Produces thin fabrics used to filter
fine-grained soils
Wick drains are a typical application
Knitted Geotextile
Used as a filter wrapping
around drainage pipe
Internal filter (not accepted practice)
Internal drain (not accepted practice)
Toe drain filter (acceptability depends on
design)
Separation between embankment zones.
Slope reinforcement
Protective cushion and drainage layer for a
membrane
Erosion control / filter underneath riprap
