    Geotextiles are permeable fabrics that are used in association with soil to separate, filter, reinforce, protect or drain soil. They are defined as permeable textile materials that increase soil stability, provide erosion control or aid in drainage. Geotextiles are permeable textile materials used as an integral part of civil engineering projects, structures or systems that are in contact with soil, rock or earth. They perform functions like separation of dissimilar soil layers, drainage of water from soil, filtration of soil to prevent erosion, and reinforcement of earth structures.

    LECTURA
     are permeable fabrics which, when used in
    association with soil, have the ability to separate,
    filter, reinforce, protect, or drain. (WIKIPEDIA)
     defined as any permeable textile material used to
    increase soil stability, provide erosion control or
    aid in drainage. (CORROSIONPEDIA)
     as permeable textile materials used in contact with
    soil, rock, earth or any other geotechnical related
    material as an integral part of civil
    engineering project, structure, or system.(ASTM
    1994)
    Polyamide
     1. Separation
    Geotextiles will prevent two soil layers of different particle sizes from
    mixing with each other
     2. Drainage
    Geotextiles will efficiently collect superfluous water from structures, such
    as rainwater or surplus water, from the soil and discharge it.
     3. Filtration
    Geotextiles are an ideal interface for reverse filtration in the soil adjacent to
    the geotextile. The complex needle-punched structure of the geotextile
    enables the retention of fine particles without reducing the permeability of
    the drain.
     4. Reinforcement
    Heavy geotextiles can be used to reinforce earth structures by means of fill
    materials.
     5. Protection
    Geotextiles are an ideal protection from erosion of earth embankments by
    wave action, currents or repeated drawdown. A layer of geotextiles can be
    placed so as to prevent leaching of fine material
     Woven Geotextiles
    Woven geotextiles perform the functions
    of separation and reinforcement. They are
    referred to by tensile strength and offer a very
    high load capacity.
     Non-woven Geotextiles
    Non-woven geotextiles are felt-like and don’t
    offer much in the way of compressive, tensile,
    or shear strength. But that’s ok because their
    main functions are separation, filtration,
    and drainage.
     Polyspun Geotextiles
    Polyspun geotextiles are non-woven fabrics and
    their main function is separation. Referred to by
    lifespan and are most commonly used as weed
    barriers.
     Spunbond Geotextiles
    In the world of fabric manufacturing, the
    spunbond process is considered the fastest
    manufacturing method for nonwoven
    fabrics. They are referred to by weight and
    commonly used as weed barriers or as drainage
    fabrics.
