The most effective applicable areas of this geo-textiles technology are to protect erosions. Geotextiles provide the best protection for erosion prone sedimentary soils which are deficient in stability due to insufficient cohesion. In Bangladesh river bank soils are very unstable from erosional point of view. These soils are deposited by the action of river flow and therefore, are very prone to re-transportation. Geo-textiles technology provides the most effective solutions for these types of soils. The construction procedures practiced in Bangladesh is only intended for protection of river bank surface layers from erosion.

The existing designs normally do not incorporate any measure for overall stability of the slopes due to, for example, failure as a result of seepage towards the river, under rapid down condition. B. J. Geo-textiles technology may be used in these applications in reinforcing the banks from deeper failures as well as protecting the surface layers from erosion due to flow and/or wave action.

Geo Bag as Launching Material

An economical source of store are not available and concrete blocks are also expensive. Geobags filled with sand can be made available at a much cheaper cost. Therefore a graded Geobag as launching materail are most idle for slope protection. Geobag are found to be stable protection elements. They seems to be provided a flexible cover layer with adequate resistance to flow forces acting on the revetment. In addition they contain filter characteristics and retain the fine underlay subsoil. Sand filled geo-bag should be free of plastic, roots and organic materials. It should not contain more than 5% silt and clay to the extent passing the 0.075 mm sieve.
