Summary: The paper discussed the manifold actions of geotextiles
inpavement structures.
The functions of separation and filtration are considered indetail,
describing the ways and mechanisms of action regardingthese functions.
When studying the reinforcing function, extensive numericalanalyses of
action of geotextiles in unbound pavement structureson low bearing soil
have also been caried out. The "tool" chosenwas Giroud and Noiray's method,
developed on theoretical analysesand empirical ralationships, and taking
into account all relevantparameters of influence. Applying this method, a
long series ofpavement structures was analysed, widely varying the
inputparameters, such as subgrade bearing capacity, modulus ofgeotextile
and the allowed rut depth.
The analyses were related to traffic load bearing capacityexpressed in
total number of 100 kN axle passes, at varyingcombinations of parametres of
influence.
It was determined that the allowed rut depht has a particularyinsignificant
effect on the load bearing capacity of pavementscontaining geotextiles.
The relationships were quantified, and it was globally concludedthat the
effect on the traffic load bearing capacity is generallyas follows:
- the effect of geotextiles is low at low values of the allowed rut depht
for any bearing capacity of soil;
- the effect of geotextiles is significant at high values of the allowed
rut depht on low bearing soils, and significant on high bearing soils.
