BIS CERTIFICATION FOR GEOTEXTILES USED IN SUB-GRADE STABILISATION IN PAVEMENT STRUCTURES IS 16362
Published Date: March 04, 2025 4 min Read
BIS certification is crucial for geotextiles used in sub-grade stabilization in pavement structures, as specified in IS 16362:2020. This standard ensures that the geotextiles meet the necessary quality, strength, and durability requirements to effectively perform in pavement applications. Geotextiles certified under this standard undergo comprehensive testing for vital properties like tensile strength, elongation, and long-term performance, ensuring they can withstand mechanical and environmental stresses while improving the structural stability of pavement systems. Compliance with IS 16362:2020 guarantees the use of high-quality geotextiles that enhance the longevity and integrity of pavement structures.
IS 16362:2020 – Geotextiles Used in Sub-grade Stabilization in Pavement Structures
This standard provides the technical specifications and testing methods for geotextiles used in sub-grade stabilization in pavement structures. It covers essential performance characteristics such as tensile strength, elongation, and resistance to mechanical stresses like tearing and abrasion, which are vital for geotextiles used in this application. The standard ensures that geotextiles provide effective stabilization by preventing soil displacement, improving load distribution, and reducing the risk of pavement cracking or failure. By meeting the criteria set by IS 16362:2020, geotextiles help in the construction of durable, long-lasting pavements that are resistant to traffic-induced stress and environmental factors.
Benefits of BIS Certification for Geotextiles in Sub-grade Stabilization
BIS certification under IS 16362:2020 ensures that geotextiles conform to national quality standards, providing manufacturers with a competitive advantage in the marketplace. For manufacturers, certification demonstrates their commitment to delivering products that meet industry regulations and enhances their market reputation. It also facilitates smoother approval processes for infrastructure projects. For end users, certified geotextiles provide confidence in the reliability and durability of pavement structures, ensuring long-term stability and reduced maintenance costs by preventing issues such as cracking or subsidence in the pavement.
