...A. Biswas; A. Murali Krishna; S.K. Dash ABSTRACT: Physical model tests were performed on geocell-reinforced foundation systems with circular footings to study the influence of the strength of the subgrade layer. Model tests were conducted with a 150 mm diameter circular footing supported...

...C. Yoo; A. R. Song This paper presents the results of an investigation into the effect of foundation yielding on the performance of two-tiered geosynthetic-reinforced segmental retaining walls using a calibrated plane-strain finite element model. Variables considered in this study include...

...M.I.M. Pinto; T.W. Cousens This paper describes a study carried out on geotextile-reinforced, brick-faced retaining walls built with different foundation conditions and reinforcement geometry in order to examine the effect of foundation quality. A total of five different foundations were tested...

...N. Miura; A. Sakai; K. Fujikawa; R. Shivashankar The paper investigates the performance of box culverts supported on geogrid reinforced gravel foundations overlying soft Ariake clay of the Saga Plain in Japan. The study focuses on: the reinforcing function of geogrids in large scale laboratory load...
