When used in railway construction, geotextiles are typically placed between the different layers of the construction, such as the subgrade, which is the layer of soil or rock beneath the track bed, and the soil. They act as a separation layer, preventing the mixing of different soil types and helping to maintain the stability of the track bed. Geotextiles also help to improve drainage and reduce the risk of erosion by allowing water to pass through the fabric while keeping soil in place.
