Assessment of Improvement in Unpaved Roadway Performance Using 3D Geogrids Under Cyclic Loading
<p>Geogrids have been used for decades to improve the performance in both paved and unpaved road construction. This research focuses on quantifying the performance and optimizing the design of unpaved roadways using the results from an extensive cyclic triaxial testing program. Twenty-seven cyclic …

In-Situ Behavior of Geosynthetically Stabilized Flexible Pavement
… geotextile was used in sections 2, 5 and 8. Geogrids were used in sections 3, 6 and 9, and sections 1, 4 and 7 were controls. Six Falling weight deflectometer (FWD) tests were performed on all the nine sections over 30 months. The nine sections were subjected to at least 5 load drops with …

An investigation of the effect of dynamic and static loading to geosynthetic reinforced pavements overlying a soft subgrade
… In this study, reinforcement geosynthetics (geogrids and geotextiles) were used as reinforcement inclusions within a granular base overlying a soft subgrade of California Bearing Ratio (CBR) less than 2% in a 1.0 m3 steel test box. Firstly, a geotextile/geogrid was placed at the interface …

Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Procedure For Geosynthetically Stabilized Flexible Pavements
… were stabilized with geotextiles and three with geogrids at the base course-subgrade interface. The remaining three sections were kept as control sections. One of each stabilization category was included in each base course thickness group. The hot-mix asphalt (HMA), SM-2A, wearing surface …

Laboratory Performance of Geosynthetic-Stabilized Pavement Sections
Experimental and analytical investigations were performed to evaluate the comparative performance of pavements with and without geosynthetic stabilization. This was accomplished by the testing of a total of 18 pavement sections which could be classified into four different types: one which was …
