A literature search and review to obtain information on geotextile applications related to pavement construction are covered. This information was obtained for application to geotextiles in general aviation pavements. The study revealed that there are numerous design procedures available for using geotextiles in aggregate surface pavements and flexible pavement road construction. The state-of-the-art has not advanced to the point where design procedures for using geotextiles in paved airport construction are available. Construction/installation procedures are available for using geotextiles in aggregate surfaced pavements and flexible pavements for roads, and these may be used as an aid in recommending procedures for airport construction. Results of comprehensive tests by researchers indicate that geogrids have more potential than geotextiles for reinforcement of flexible pavements.
