...K. Kazemi; M. R. Arvin; N. Hataf; A. Khademhosseini This study examines the behaviour of square footings located on unreinforced, single-, and double-layer geocell-reinforced sand slopes through a series of reduced-scale model tests. Contributing factors such as the distance between the footing...

... conditions on embedded and non-embedded square footings in unreinforced and reinforced soils were investigated with laboratory model tests given in the first part of the study. Variations in the bearing capacity were determined through vertical load versus settlement curves drawn after each test...
