Short Fiber Needle Punched Geotextile: Introduction to River Embankment Reinforcement Project

River Embankment Reinforcement Geotextile 

River Embankment Reinforcement Project (River Flood Control)

This project is an upgrading and reconstruction project for regional river flood control embankments. The original soil embankment has long been affected by river water scouring and rainwater infiltration, resulting in embankment seepage, slope soil erosion, and hidden dangers of piping during flood seasons, with insufficient flood control capacity.

River Slope Protection Geotextile

Short fiber needle punched geotextile is widely laid on the upstream slope, embankment foundation and drainage layer of the downstream slope of the dam. On the upstream face, the geotextile is laid between slope protection stones and soil layers to perform the functions of filtration, separation and anti-scouring. Inside the embankment, the excellent water permeability of geotextile is utilized to discharge accumulated water in the dam and lower the phreatic line. The drainage structure at the embankment toe is wrapped with geotextile to prevent sediment from blocking the drainage channel.

River Embankment Reinforcement Geotextile Application Effect

It effectively prevents the loss of soil particles and eliminates dangerous conditions such as piping and seepage. The anti-scouring capacity of the embankment slope is greatly improved, reducing soil and water loss. The overall stability of the embankment is enhanced, the flood control standard is significantly raised, and the anti-seepage and drainage performance remains stable during long-term operation.
