2.3 GEOTEXTILE;FILTER DESIGN Designing with geotextiles for filtration is essentially the same as designing graded granular filters. A geotextile is similar to a soil in that it has voids (pores) and particles (filaments and fibers). However, because of the shape and arrangement of the filaments and the compressibility of the
