Non - Woven Geotextile
Non Woven Geotextile Is A Type That Is Not Woven , Shaped Like A Carpet Fabric .
Generally Made From Basic Ingredients Polyesther Polymer ( Pet ) Or Polypropylene ( Pp ) .
Non - Woven Geotextile Functions
1 . Separator / Separator
As Separator Or Separator , Non Woven Geotextile Is Used To Prevent Mixing Of The Layers Of Material With Other Material .
Examples Of The Use Of Geotextile As A Separator Is On Road Construction Projects On The Basis Of Soft Ground ( Eg Muddy ) . In This Project , Geotextile Prevent Mud Rising To The Pavement System , So There Is No Pumping Effect That Will Easily Damage The Pavement . Besides The Existence Of Geotextile Also Facilitate The Process Of Compaction Of Pavement Systems .
2 . Stabilization / Stabilizer
Geotextile Function Is Often Referred To As Reinforcement / Reinforcement . For Example Used On Projects Embankment , Slope Reinforcement Etc. . This Function Is Still Being Debated Among Geotechnical Engineer , For Geotextile Membrane Effect Work Using Methods That Rely On Tensile Strength ( Tensile Strength ) So That The Possibility Of A Local Decrease In Deposits , Is Significant, As The Lack Of Material Stiffness . Moreover, A Simple Elastic Properties Of Geotextile Especially If Exposed To Water ( Hydrolysis Reaction ) Makes It Vulnerable As Slope Reinforcement Material .
3 . Filter / Filters
As A Filter , Geotextile Non Woven Serves To Prevent The Transport Of Soil Particles In The Water Flow . Due To The Nature Of Non Woven Geotextile Are Permeable ( Impermeable To Water ) , The Water Can Pass Through But The Soil Particles Suspended Geotextile . Applications As A Filter Typically Used On Projects Subdrain ( Underground Drainage ) .
