Geosynthetic materials (i.e., geogrids, geotextiles and other geocomposites) act as an interlayer system are widely used in construction applications. In pavement structures, geosynthetic layers provide potential benefits such reinforcement, reflective cracking mitigation, increased fatigue life, improved drainage filtering. However, few studies have addressed the installation practices of geos...

With the advent of high strength geogrids, the interest of civil engineers in using geosynthetics as reinforcement material in pavement construction has increased. An experimental study is carried out at IIT Delhi to understand the effect of geogrid in unpaved roads. Behavior of composite material, which comprises of Yamuna sand as subgrade and Water Bound Macadam (WBM) as base course is studie...

This paper presents an experimental and numerical analysis of the uplift resistance pipelines buried in reinforced soil. The behavior system is studied using a set laboratory experiments. pull-out forces some reinforcing are most important factors affecting resistance. Buried elements such as that have high pressure fluids or under temperature need to be order increase their One efficient metho...

The critical zones are the discontinuities along a railway line that highly susceptible to differential settlement, due an abrupt variation in support conditions over short span. Consequently, these require frequent maintenance ensure adequate levels of passenger safety and comfort. A proper understanding behavior tracks at is imperative enhance their performance reduce frequency costly operati...

It is well-known that the inclusion of composite geogrids (CGGs) into pavement structure assists to maximise benefits geosynthetic-reinforcement in flexible pavements. However, use CGGs practice limited Queensland, Australia regardless its potential benefits, mainly due absence rational design guidelines. Therefore, this study was conducted develop guidelines unpaved granular pavements/working ...

Purpose. To prove that the GCCM (geosynthetic cementitious composite mat) – type Concrete Canvas (CC) is an adequate supplementary layer on top of subgrade. As its drainage function known, this article tries to reinforcement possibility. This relatively thin; nevertheless, it can behave like geogrids. It main path finding out opportunity interlocking effect and impact railway ballast’s inner sh...

In seasonally frozen soil regions, the influence of temperature change on reinforced-soil engineering cannot be ignored. particular, mechanical properties interface have an important impact overall stability and long-term service performance reinforced engineering. To explore characteristics reinforcement mechanism between geogrids coarse-grained under negative temperatures, this paper takes ty...
