Summary/Abstract: Use of geosynthetic materials in the works to stabilize landslide has many advantages. That any material produced in a controlled way, has the advantage of properties uniformity throughout the surface and availability on any site. Geosynthetics with reinforcement function lead to an enhancement of the mechanical properties of the soil, which allows impossible, otherwise, structures (vertical support structures or close to vertical, steep slopes, etc.).
