Geotec
		A geotextile is a synthetic permeable textile material used with soil, rock, or any other geotechnical engineering related material. Geotextiles, also called geosynthetics, are generally associated with high-standard all-season roads, but can be used in low-standard logging roads.
Geotextiles extend the service life of roads, increase their load-carrying capacity, and reduce the incidence of ruts. These benefits are accomplished by separating aggregate structural layers from subgrade soil while allowing the passage of water (see description on Separation). Geotextiles should be considered for use on any section of road requiring an aggregate (rock) layer for surfacing. Geotextiles can reduce the amount of aggregate required, thus reducing the cost of the road, as well as providing the benefits described in the previous paragraph.

Seperation: The separation function refers to the separation of two dissimilar soils. The primary function of the geotextile is to prevent intermixing of the two soils throughout the life of the structure. Geotextiles are commonly used for separation when used beneath road-way pavement sections. Although you will not be constructing pavement sections, you may want to use some aggregate over certain sections of the road, in which case the principles described here still apply. Roadway pavements are basically structures for taking the high contact pressures from the vehicle tires and reducing that pressure through the depth of the pavement to a level that can be supported by the underlying soil. Pressure is dissipated down through the various layers of materials within the pavement.

Filtration: Filtration is one of the functions most widely performed by geotextiles. The filtration function has two concurrent objectives: to retain the particles of the filtered soil, while permitting water to pass through the plane of the geotextile from the filtered soil. These two parallel roles are the key to filtration design
