Geo Bags and Geo Tubes
Geo Bags are relatively smaller sized bags fabricated from appropriate Geotextile and filled with sand or any suitable soil. The Geotextile used to make Geo Bags has fine pore sizes to enable retention of the soil-infill but also has high permeability to enable easy exit of water during the hydraulic filling stage. Geo Bags also has high tensile strength to enable it to resist the tensile stresses occurring during hydraulic filling and maintain its structure shape. Geo Tubes are large tube like structures fabricated from high strength Geotextile with soil-in-fills. Geo Tube is formed in situ by the hydraulic pumping of local soil into the prefabricated Geotextile tube.
This leads to a flexible, monolithic, continuous structure that is highly resistant to water currents. Sand is widely used as the soil in-fill material because of its low compressibility but other hydraulically pumped soil types can be used. Geo Tubes are normally characterized in terms of theoretical diameter. The Geotextile used to make Geo Tubes and Geo Bags has fine pore sizes to enable retention of the soil-in-fill but also has high permeability to enable easy exit of water during the hydraulic filling stage. It also has high tensile strength to enable it to resist the tensile stresses occurring during hydraulic filling and maintain its structure shape.
