In the field of construction and design of the landscape, geotextiles began to be applied more and more often. At the moment, this high -quality and unpretentious material is of great popularity when creating drainage fortifications and systems. Thanks to its properties, geotextiles have strong positions in the construction works of various directions.
Production of material.
Geotextile materials are a flat polymer non -woven canvas of fibers, which do not prevent the penetration of moisture and air, but delay solid particles of any substance. The geotextile of the IP is made by needle -proof or heat -fixed method. In the first case, the staple polymer fiber is based on, the second uses polymer continuous mononic. For example, the properties of the material include its durability, resistance to chemical influences and temperature changes (from -60 to +100 degrees).
Advantages of geotextiles.
Geotextiles have the possibility of a large lengthening when rupture, up to 45%. This helps to avoid destruction, and also increases the life of a building or roadway. The pluses of geotextiles, we can also attribute its absolute safety for the ecology, ease of storage and ease of installation. The material does not absorb water, that is, it can be used under any climatic conditions, it will not change its properties and weight. Mold, acids do not affect geotextiles, rodents and roots of plants of decay are not dangerous to it.
Due to its elasticity, geotextiles can perform reinforcing functions. Since his pores do not clog, it is used as a filter. Has resistance to ultraviolet radiation.
Areas of use.
The scope of geotextiles is due to its unique functions. That is, it is used in areas where reinforcement, separation, filtering and drainage is needed.
First of all, for the construction of roads. Layers of sand and soil are separated by geotextiles, while the load is distributed in the optimal way. Geotextiles allows you to reduce sand consumption, increase the speed of work and reduce the complexity and cost of the process.
Geotextile materials are widely used to strengthen low -carrying soils and build embankments. It guarantees a high degree of energy absorption, thereby increasing the stability of the design. The material is also used to reinforce bitumen mixtures in roofing.
In landscape design, geotextiles protect the soil from leaching of a fertile layer, does not allow weeds to germinate, while missing moisture and fertilizers to the roots of the necessary plants.
The material protects waterproofing membranes in basements and tunnels, is used for sound and thermal insulation of walls, increases the degree of filtering and water resistance of drainage systems.
Regardless of the field of use, geotextiles shows excellent characteristics and contributes to the installation work of the highest class, while lowering the amount of costs.
