Title: Eudurance Property of Non Woven Geotextile in the Soil
Abstract: We used the non-woven geotextile for the drainage system and reinforcing material in the steep slope embankment. This embankment was left in outdoor for three years and three months. It was inrestigated that the geotextile had contributed for stabilizing the embankment. Then we took to pieces of this embankment, and picked up the geotextiles in the soil. We estimated the endurance property of non-woven geotextile in the soil with tensile strength, elongation, tear resistance, thickness, unit weight, and water permeability. In the result the property of geotextile did not become weak at all, and we have no problem for using the non-woven geotextile in the soil obviously.
