👉Purpose of Geotextile in Road Construction
1. Separation
Keeps the soil and aggregate layers from mixing.
2. Reinforcement
Improves the strength and stability of weak subgrade soil.
3. Filtration
Allows water to pass while preventing soil particles from clogging the drainage layer.
4. Drainage
Helps remove excess water, reducing water damage.
5. Protection
Protects pavement layers from erosion and deformation.
6. Longer Road Life
Reduces settlement, rutting, and maintenance costs, increasing pavement durability.
