Deformation prediction of geosynthetic reinforced soil retaining walls
A program to investigate the behavior of geosynthetic reinforced soil and the deformation of geosynthetic reinforced soil retaining walls is presented. This investigation included laboratory testing of geosynthetic reinforcements and geosynthetic reinforced cohesionless soils, and finite element …

Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil: Numerical and Mathematical Analysis of Laboratory Triaxial Compression Tests
Geosynthetic reinforced soil (GRS) is a soil improvement technology in which closely spaced horizontal layers of geosynthetic are embedded in a soil mass to provide lateral support and increase strength. GRS is popular due to a relatively new application for bridge support, as well as long-standing …

Numerical Study and Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Calibration for Reinforced Soil Retaining Walls
… all transportation-related structures including reinforced soil retaining walls. The ultimate objective of this thesis work was to carry out reliability-based analysis for load and resistance factor design calibration for rupture and pullout limit states for steel and geosynthetic reinforced soil …

Centrifuge modelling of the behaviour of geosynthetic-reinforced soils above voids
Understanding the deformation mechanisms of soils and geosynthetics in response to the formation of a void below a geosynthetic-reinforced soil is crucial to provide efficient designs of geosynthetic-reinforced soil systems such as embankments and landfill liners. Centrifuge modelling of the soil …

Investigation of Required Tensile Strength Predicted by Current Reinforced Soil Design Methodologies
Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil (GRS) is a promising technology that can be implemented in walls, culverts, rock fall barriers, and bridge abutments. Its use in walls and abutments is similar to Mechanically Stabilized Earth Walls (MSEW) reinforced with geosynthetics. Both GRS and MSEW are reinforced …

Evaluating Performance of Hybrid Geosynthetic-Reinforced Retaining Walls
Geosynthetic-Reinforced Retaining (GRR) walls have been extensively used in highway projects. A novel GRR wall was proposed to mitigate the problems (e.g. high connection stress) resulting from the relatively large spacing of primary reinforcement. This new GRR wall has secondary reinforcement …
