Avi Bhadiyadra [2] | Maulik Rafaliya | Harsh Gujarati | Ravi Karkar | Meet Viradia [2]
Abstract: In this project coir geotextile placed at particular depth of soil improves Erosion Control and Slope Stability as well as Soil bearing capacity and its Performance. The natural products like coir geotextiles make the construction cost effective and eco-friendly. This has added a new dimension to the development of coir products in the field of geotextiles as coir possesses high strength and biodegradability to add to its advantages over other natural and synthetic Fibers. Coir geotextile can be effectively used as stabilizer and reinforcement in paved and unpaved roads. It improves the mechanical characteristics of roads, yielding to significant increase in road life span and reduction in maintenance cost
