HP- SerieS Woven <br />Polypropylene G iotexides yield ultimate <br />tensile strengths up to 13.200 Ibs/tt <br />(machine direction) per ASTM D 4595. <br />The HP- Series products combine the prop - <br />enies of high lensAe strength ar-t modulus <br />and trgh conlinemert with their ability to <br />act as a liter and separator. <br />FEATURES AND 13ENEFITS <br />Strength.

Woven renlorremenl geotex <br />Ues provide low cost tensile strength <br />lot reinforced soil structures. <br />APPLICATIONS <br />Because of their flexibility and versatility. <br />woven geolextries are used in a variety of <br />applications, including embankments on <br />soft foundations. retaining walls. <br />steepened slopes, and soil stabilization lot <br />road and rail construction. Environmental <br />applications include finer support, voids <br />bridging. and reinforcement over soft. <br />hazardous pond closures. For any <br />application vfiere long term desgn of <br />earth reinforcement structures are <br />involved. HP- Series Woven Polypropylene <br />Geotextiles are a logical choice. <br />INSTALLATION GUIDELINES' <br />Site Preparation <br />Many conditions affect the degree M srue <br />preparation required to provide a workixl <br />surface compatible with the selected <br />geotextile including: <br />Funindation subgrade strength and its <br />relation to equipment monthly: <br />• The presence of a vegetative root inat: <br />The need for removal of large 'fees or <br />other obstacles. <br />Direct placement of the geotexhie on the <br />prepared site is usually Preferable. <br />Geoterahy, it is advisable to leave vegela- <br />tve cover such as grass and weeds in <br />place to provide a support malting for <br />construction activities. <br />Geotextile Fabrication and <br />Placement Procedures <br />Placement of geotextiles can be laLof <br />intensive process. This tine consuming <br />procedure can be simplified by prefabri- <br />cating geotextde panels before geld place- <br />ment and using experienced field <br />installation and sewing crews. <br />Installation of ;he geotextie must conform <br />to the limes and grades as prawn by the <br />engineer. This may requite large'cA or <br />panel placement, using manual pOSrtinnnng <br />or equipment- assisted dePloymertt. <br />- These guxlehnes serve as a general <br />basis foil instal4+tton.
