*Wrinkles in the fabric – follow the manufacturer’s procedure for installation to ensure geotextiles lie smooth on sub-grade

*Unnecessary application of geotextile – mixing of media is negligible where structural loads are not expected, so geotextile does not need to be applied. Also, geotextiles should not be used where root growth is encouraged to penetrate different layers of media<br>

Where structural loads are anticipated or underlying soil is particularly soft, geogrid can be applied in conjunction with geotextile. Geogrid is a rigid geosynthetic material that can be laid on sub-grade to reinforce softer soils and provide a more even distribution of loads across the sub-grade materials.<br>
