Applications of Geotextile Sheets in Separation and Filtration

Description

One of the primary uses of geotextile sheets is in the separation of different layers of soil, aggregate, or other construction materials. For example, when building roads, a geotextile sheet is placed between the subgrade (the soil layer) and the base material (gravel or sand). The fabric allows water to flow through while preventing the base material from mixing with the subgrade, which helps maintain the strength and stability of the road. Similarly, geotextile fabrics are used in drainage systems to filter water and prevent the ingress of fine particles.
