After a detailed study of research carried out here and in Europe on both conventional and geotextile filters, developed a widely used design procedure for geotextile filters for drainage and permanent erosion-control applications. The level of design required depends on the critical nature of the project and the severity of the hydraulic and soil conditions. Especially
