Construction Criteria--Separation ... Geotextiles act to distribute the more concentrated pressures applied by the larger-size material to minimize load bearing failures and at the same time prevent migration of the finer particles through the coarser matrix. It is typical for geotextiles providing separation that some additional reinforcement role may also be provided. 2, record 2, English, - separation

Le cas le plus connu des routiers est la pose d’une sous-fondation en sable ou en granulat propre sur un sol fin argileux humide [...] Le géotextile placé entre ces deux matériaux de caractéristiques mécaniques très différentes les sépare et empêche leur interpénétration lors des travaux de mise en œuvre, de compaction et de roulement des véhicules. L'anticontamination est donc ainsi réalisée et chaque matériau conserve donc ses propriétés. 1, record 2, French, - anticontamination
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Conteneur. Le géotextile sépare le sol du milieu extérieur. La propriété principale requise est la résistance à la traction et à la déchirure, mais la texture du géotextile doit être assez serrée pour garantir une bonne séparation entre deux milieux solides. 3, record 2, French, - anticontamination
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 3 CONT
La séparation peut se définir à deux niveaux : hydraulique = filtration ; mécanique = écran afin d’éviter l’interpénétration de couches différentes. 1, record 2, French, - anticontamination
