Abstract
The following is the research entitled, application of geosynthetics between the Cardones and the
Machin, to improve the tertiary road, located in the municipality of San Juan del Cesar. The
objective is to build a state of knowledge on the different applications of geosynthetics applied in
the construction of an unpaved road, in order to propose an efficient and economically viable
alternative for the road section with a length of 17 kilometers. For this purpose, a qualitative and
descriptive methodology was presented, using primary sources (observation in field work) and
secondary sources (review of texts). The results identified the deterioration of the 17 kilometers in
the study section, presenting gullies in the road due to the flow of water, due to the lack of drainage
on steep slopes, which makes access to the villages difficult. As for geosynthetic alternatives
applied to unpaved roads and rural roads, geotextiles, geogrids and geocells have improved their
performance by taking care of natural resources and making the best use of granular materials. The
alternative to the use of geosynthetics that solves the study area is the use of geotextile, since it
has the function of draining and separating the granular layers, thus avoiding the loss of aggregates.
It was concluded that the use of geotextile reduces the appearance of reflection cracks due to the
poor distribution of stresses on the wearing course
