Abstract
A geocomposite which is suitable for the consolidation and/or drainage of ground, having a plurality of layers including at least a first web of geotextile and at least a second web of geotextile which are thermofixed to the sides of an intermediate separation layer which is produced by at least one geomat of entangled plastics threads having a thickness of approximately from 4 to 5 mm, or more. This geocomposite may be used as a basis in order to form a complex geocomposite, in which there is thermofixed to at least one of the webs of the basic geocomposite at least one additional layer of a geosynthetic selected from the group including geogrids, geonets, geomats, geotextiles, geomembranes or a combination or stratification thereof.
