The analysis of mechanically stabilised earthworks using geosynthetic reinforcements is typically addressed by means a limit equilibrium or finite-element analysis. However, the design reinforcement layout and strength generally specified based on guidance experience. Limit analysis, in particular discontinuity optimisation (DLO) presents an alternative for both reinforced slopes. current study...

The application of methods improvement ground bases in subsidence areas is an urgent issue today. This evidenced by the continuing difficulties with operation transport structures. study presents experimental studies soil reinforcement. An important factor to determine properties soil, so paper results laboratory tests. angle internal friction and deformation increases a greater extent when rei...

Slope reinforcement and the use of structural pile elements can be an effective slope remediation alternative when conventional remediation practices (e.g., improved drainage) fail to consider the causal factors leading to slope instability (e.g., strength loss due to weathering). An experimental research program was aimed at developing a rapid, cost-effective, and simple remediation system tha...

Remediation of slope failures requires stabilization alternatives that address causes of slope instability. Slope reinforcement and pile stabilization systems, if properly designed, are effective in preventing slope movements in weak soils. Soil load transfer to pile elements from the lateral soil movement as occurs in slope failures is a complex soil-structure interaction problem, and the sign...

nowadays, soil reinforcement using polymer elements have been investigated by a number of researchers in order to increase the load capacity of soils. reinforcing soils using fibers is a method of soil improvement, which offers a homogenous mixture in combination with soils, regarding their tensile strength. this combination maintains pressure loading capacity and properties in mutual resistant...
