Geotextile Functions and Mechanisms
Reinforcement
This is the synergistic improvement in the total
system strength created by the introduction of a
geotextile into a soil and developed primarily
through the following three mechanisms:
Sealing Function
New Overlay
with Paving Fabric
Pavement Crack
Reflective Crack
without Paving Fabric
Old Pavement
Base Course
Major Applications of Geotextiles
Separation of Dissimilar Materials
To reinforce embankments
To aid in construction of steep slopes
As basal reinforcement over soft soils
To bridge over cracked or jointed rock
To create more stable side slopes due to high
frictional resistance
