Use of Geotextile


27 May,2025

The use of geotextiles is particularly important in modern engineering construction. Geotextiles are mainly made of synthetic fiber materials such as polyester and polypropylene, and have excellent permeability, strength and durability. It is widely used in infrastructure construction such as roads, railways, dams, tunnels, etc. In civil engineering, the main functions of geotextiles include separation, filtration, drainage and reinforcement. By laying geotextiles between soil layers, the mixing of different soil layers can be effectively prevented and the stability of the soil can be maintained. In addition, geotextiles can also be used as drainage layers to promote the discharge of water, reduce the pressure of water on the soil, prevent soil erosion, and ensure the safety and durability of the project.

With the improvement of environmental awareness, the use of geotextiles has gradually developed towards ecologicalization. For example, the use of degradable geotextile materials can achieve the functions required by the project while protecting the environment. At the same time, the application scope of geotextiles is also expanding, not only limited to traditional civil engineering, but also gradually penetrating into water conservancy, environmental protection, agriculture and other fields. In agriculture, geotextiles can be used to cover and protect the soil, help maintain soil moisture, reduce weed growth, and increase crop yields. Therefore, the use of geotextiles not only improves the efficiency and quality of engineering construction, but also contributes to sustainable development. With the advancement of science and technology, the materials and technologies of geotextiles will be more diversified in the future, providing better solutions for various projects.
