One of the efficient techniques to improve the behavior of the paved road under traffic loads is implementing the geosynthetic material in the sub-base or the soil under the road. In the past years, many researches have been done about this topic, but the study on the effect of soil/load conditions on the performance of the rehabilitated paved road by geogrid in order to investigate the effecti...

By installing FBG sensors on the geogrids, smart geogrids can both reinforce and monitor the stability for geogrid-reinforced slopes. In this paper, a geogrid-reinforced sand slope model test is conducted in the laboratory and fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing technology is used to measure the strain distribution of the geogrid. Based on the model test, the performance of the reinforced soil sl...

The interaction between reinforcement and soil is a key problem in the application of geosynthetics as geotechnical engineering. In this study, tensile pull-out tests on uniaxial geogrid were carried out using self-designed test equipment. evaluated load–strain characteristics geogrid. Under condition lateral confinement, force secant stiffness increased with an increase normal stress when stra...

This study performed an experimental investigation of asphalt concrete with and without fiberglass geogrid reinforcement, using specimens in the laboratory situ. A 100kN/m was used. The results showed that flexural strength increased by 24.82%, deformation significantly reduced, elastic modulus did not improve significantly. In addition, Hamburg Wheel Tracker test, reinforced samples had a 7.41...

In order to investigate the pullout resistance of Horizontal-Vertical reinforcement, a “denti-geogrid” was assembled by bonding “denti-strip” with geogrid and tests were carried out. Subsequently, analytical approaches investigated calculate on basis surface sliding model, Perterson Anderson’s Jewell’s Chai’s proposed stress summation model. Moreover, new index named “scale factor” suggested re...

This paper reports the results of model loading tests performed on an eccentrically loaded strip foundation supported by multi-layered geogrid-reinforced sand. Only one type of geogrid and sand at one relative density of compaction were considered. Based on the present laboratory test results, an empirical relationship for the reduction factor has been developed. This relationship can be used t...

Abstract This paper presents the summary of experimental program to evaluate potential KOBM (Klockner Oxygen Blown Maxhutte) slag stabilize geogrid-reinforced subgrade soil in Suva, Fiji. is a by-product steel manufacturing process New Zealand. The standard California bearing ratio (CBR) laboratory tests were performed on samples with various combinations geogrid and slag, along other geotechni...

Geosynthetic materials have been demonstrated to be an accurate element in civil engineering, specifically the field of pavement. Regarding implementation these asphalt mixture layers, geosynthetics, such as geotextile and geogrid, used delay crack propagation and/or increase fatigue life. However, use material is based on experience learned or results obtained from testing a reduced scale labo...
