Geotextile Functions

I. Separation function; separation of two layers of soil with different soil physical properties, such as road gravel from soft sub-base materials.

II. Filtration function; retaining fine particles when water passes from a fine-grained to a coarse-grained layer, such as when water flows from a sandy soil into a geotextile wrapped gravel drain.

III. Drainage function; to drain liquid or gas in the plane of the fabric which results in draining or venting of the soil, such as a gas vent layer in a landfill cap.
