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...

Plastic materials are widely used in geotechnical engineering, especially as geosynthetics. The use of plastic-based products involves serious environmental risks caused by their degradation. Innovative research has been focusing on biodegradable polymers natural origin, poly(lactic acid) (PLA), to reduce the plastics. This study aims explore potentiality biopolymers for production geogrids, me...

One of the most effective ways to increase longevity pavement structures is through integration geosynthetic reinforcement. Geosynthetics are synthetic materials such as geotextiles, geogrids, or geocomposites that added interface between subgrade and base layer a structure. To evaluate effect various parameters on structural benefits reinforcement structure low-volume traffic flexible pavement...

The national planners have put infrastructures development on priority. This has resulted in transport planning widening of National Highway and new roads in country. Thus work of Retaining Earth (RE) structures/ slopes will be going to design in very large numbers over different areas. The availability of backfill material compatible with geosynthetics reinforcements and economy in both has be...

Geosynthetics have proved to be suitable for reinforced soil retaining walls. Based on the increasing uses of geosynthetic reinforced soil systems in the regions, which bear frequent earthquakes, the study of dynamic behavior of structures seems necessary. Determining the reinforcement forces is; therefore, one of the most important and main points of discussions in designing retaining walls, b...
