... sand ( RS ), derived from the washing of construction and demolition waste, has emerged as a promising substitute for geotechnical applications. This study examines the interface behaviour of RS and NS reinforced with ten types of geosynthetics using large-scale direct shear ( LSDS ) testing...

... soil with a specified mean grain size in their study. As a result, the relative effects of mean grain size and surface roughness of textured geomembrane was not investigated. The surface interaction between soil and geosynthetics, like smooth or textured geomembranes, depends on the surface...

... geosynthetics modulus of elasticity quality control Table 2. Properties of triaxial geogrid reinforcement Parameters Standard Triaxial geogrid (TX) ^a Tensile strengths at 2 and 5% strain: kN/m ISO 10319 ≥15 and >20% of ultimate tensile strength in respective...

...B. Indraratna; M. A. Shahin; W. Salim Railway ballast breaks down and deteriorates progressively under train cyclic loading, and soft formation soil fails due to repetitive stress, leading to costly rail track maintenance. Using geosynthetics, track conditions can be improved and maintenance costs...

... testing. The possible use of different types of geosynthetics to improve the performance of fresh and recycled ballast was also investigated. The research findings showed that the inclusion of geosynthetics improves the performance of ballasted tracks. Le ballast et son comportement mécanique ont une...

...M. I. M. Pinto This paper gives an overview of the main applications of geosynthetics in soil reinforcement. It provides a pointernal to other sources of information for those who are interested in this topic and wish to go deeper into it. After a short section dealing with geosynthetics...
