Higher tensile strength at <br />2% and 5% than any comparable <br />stabdoatron product, <br />• Flow. Uniform openings provxde the <br />same filtration and flow cheracterlsfics <br />as that of a fine to Coarse sand layer. <br />• Soil Interaction. Excellent sod <br />confinement resulting In greater load <br />drstnbution, <br />Seams. Panels can be s0•wn together <br />In the factory or t.etd, provrdn rg <br />cross roll dxotllon strength to lacrhtate <br />Installation and providing rernforce- <br />mcni strength, <br />• CosL Woven reinforcement geotex <br />tiles provide low cost tensile strength <br />tot reinforced soil structures <br />APPLICATIONS <br />Because of their flexibility and versatility <br />woven geotexliles are used in a vanely of <br />applications. Including embankments on <br />soh toundahons IPlainmq wall; <br />steepened slopes, an0 sod stabilization to, <br />road and rad construction. Envronmel dal <br />applications include liner support voids <br />bridging and relnlorcem ilt over soft, <br />hazardous pond closures For anv <br />application where long term design of <br />earth reinforcement structures are <br />involved.
