How Does Geotextile Improve Performance?
October 18, 2022
Geotextiles can be rated as veteran - level products in geotechnical materials. It occupies an important position in the development of geotechnical materials and is a pioneering product in its development. It has been widely used in many fields. Non woven geotextiles have excellent filtration, drainage, isolation, reinforcement, and protection. They have light weight, high tensile strength, good permeability, high temperature resistance, resistance to freezing, aging, and corrosion resistance. Here we talk about how geotextiles work in the use of the process?
1. When the water flows from the fine soil layer into the coarse soil layer, it uses the good permeability and water permeability of the geotextile to make the water flow through, and effectively carry the earth particles, fine sand, small stones, etc. to keep water and soil engineering stability.
2. Geotextile fabric non woven has a good water conductivity, it can form a drainage channel inside the soil, the soil structure inside the excess liquid and gas exhaust.
3. When the water stream scours the soil, the non woven geotextile fabric will effectively concentrate on the stress diffusion, transfer or decompose, and prevent the soil body from being damaged by the external force and protect the soil.
Filament geotextiles are often used in farmland and water conservancy projects. In order to guarantee their function, what areas should we pay attention to?
First, it is recommended to use thick geotextiles in addition to isolation and protection, but also to increase the temperature, which is beneficial to prevent frost heave damage.
Second, it is recommended to use the national standard filament geotextile, in the channel of long - filament geotextile vulnerable to masonry destruction, while the construction staff of the non - standard operation may also cause damage to the geotextile. On the other hand, the non - standard filament geotextile provided by other companies uses too much of the recycled material, and the strength drops rapidly. Once it is damaged, it will cause extensive damage and lead to the failure of the entire project.
Third, it is recommended to choose the appropriate width and length, the choice of width and length should be based on the specific length of the channel section and lap joint, at the same time combining the construction of workers. The recommended product is 6 meters wide and 50 meters long.
Fourth, do a good job of product protection, filament geotextile fabric is not easy to long - term exposure to the sun, in storage and construction should pay attention to product protection, the use of plastic film or other cover do a good job of sun protection, waterproof treatment. At present, the irrigation and water conservancy projects have also started one after another. Long - filament geotextiles have also become popular in this industry.
