Biodegradable geotextiles made from materials such as jute or coir are used for temporary erosion control. They protect the slope surface during the early stages of vegetation growth and gradually decompose, leaving a naturally stabilized slope.
## Functions of Geotextiles in Slope Protection [...] A geotextile is a permeable fabric used in contact with soil, rock, or other geotechnical materials to improve ground performance. It is typically manufactured from synthetic polymers such as polypropylene or polyester, although natural fiber options also exist. Geotextiles are designed to perform one or more functions, including reinforcement, filtration, drainage, separation, and erosion control.
### Importance of Slope Protection and Erosion Control [...] Geotextiles are a proven and versatile solution for slope protection and erosion control across a wide range of environments. By addressing soil stability, water management, and surface protection, they help safeguard infrastructure, reduce environmental impact, and support sustainable construction practices. When properly designed and installed, geotextiles deliver long-lasting performance and are an essential component of modern geotechnical engineering. Contractors who seek to utilise

The geotextile is selected in accordance with soil conditions and slope stability (Koerner, 1986) . If the slope conditions are suitable for vegetation growth and the measure is limited to control the runoff erosion, the selection can be oriented to a temporarly biodegradable solution, such as geotextiles or erosion control blankets made of jute, straw or coir fibers. If the potential runoff is high, a woven geotextile is preferred because of its higher strength compared to nonwoven materials. [...] nonwoven materials. When slope conditions are not suitable for easy vegetation growth or a slope reinforcement is required, synthetics products are preferred. For slope stabilization purposes, geogrids are used when high tensile strength is required, while geotextiles are used for low tensile strength requirement. [...] Geotextiles are permeable blankets used to cover soil surface and reduce erosion from rainfall impact, as a filter to prevent soils from migrating along a slope as well as to drain water from or through soils with low permeability. The presence of geotextile can also improve the surface microclimate, retaining soil moisture to promote seed germination and thus vegetation growth (Bergado & Soralump, 1999). They are also used to protect seeds along slopes in the initial stage of vegetation

control is to hold the soil, mulch, seeds, and plants in place while the vegetative cover is being established. These materials block the force of the rain, let moisture through to the developing plants, and help control soil temperature and evaporation. There are two types of geotextiles that are used in erosion control and they reflect the usage of each. The first is organic materials that are intended to be temporary. These include the mulches, tackifiers, emulsions, and other newer soil [...] systems such as concrete block, concrete-filled mattresses and gabions. Geotextiles can provide a function here by providing a separation function under the concrete or rip-rap over smaller grained soil. (Figure 2.) Geotextiles also are manufactured as mattresses that are quilted with cable or other materials. (Figure 3.) These mattresses become the forms for poured concrete providing a continuous surface as an erosion barrier. In laboratory tests of various erosion control products, all the [...] woven and nonwoven geosynthetics. These geomats are made of nylon, polyester, polypropylene, vinyl, or polyethylene. Geomats can be three dimensional mats of varying thickness with large fibers randomly oriented providing openings for vegetation to grow through. It conforms to the ground, and holds the soil until vegetation gets started. Its permanent function is to provide a link for the roots making a permanent ground-gripping carpet. Other materials are flexible and honeycomb shaped when

APPLICATION OF GEOMESH IN SLOPE STRENGTHENING
Geomesh fabrics are the most efficient solution to prevent slope erosion and other issues that may arise. All biaxial strengthening geomesh membranes for use in slopes feature a rectangular mesh opening. These are manufactured with high elastic modulus and low creep polyester that provide the geomesh with highly resistant features. In addition, the geomesh is protected from mechanical damage by a polymer coating. [...] VIEW PRODUCT

panels, either in the factory or on site, are preferred to lapping only. Sewing has proved to be the most reliable method of joining adjacent panels. It should be performed using polyester, polypropylene, kevlar or nylon thread. The seam strength for both factory and field seams should not be less than 90 percent of the required tensile strength of the unaged geotextile in any principal direction. Geotextiles may be held in place on the slope with securing pins prior to placing the cover [...] in loose soils. The maximum slope on which geotextiles may be placed will be determined by the friction angles between the natural-ground and geotextile and cover- material and geotextile. The maximum allowable slope in no case can be greater than the lowest friction angle between these two materials and the geotextile. An Introduction to Geotextiles in Erosion Control – C01-015 © J.

The geotextile should be anchored at its terminal ends to prevent uplift or undermining.

Terram Geocells are available in two variants: Terram geotextile geocell and Terram HDPE geocell. The Terram geotextile geocell is manufactured from strips of stiff but flexible nonwoven geotextile material that is chemically bonded at the joints to form honeycomb panels. These panels feature cells with strip widths (panel heights) ranging from 100mm to 200mm. [...] Generally, for slopes up to 30 degrees, grades 35/10 & 35/15 are recommended. For slopes between 30 and 45 degrees, grades 25/10, 25/15, 22/20 are suitable options. Additionally, with the recent addition of Terram HDPE Geocell to our product range, you can also consider the Terram HDPE Geocell option. Please see the Terram Geocell erosion control SDI (specification, design, and installation) guide for more details.
### What grade of Geocell do I need for Tree Root Protection? [...] Yes, TERRAM Geotextile Geocells are manufactured from 100% permeable nonwoven geotextile fabric allowing ground water to pass through the cell walls rather than cascading over or underneath causing soil erosion.
