Abstract

The tensile behaviour of soil plays a significantly important role in various engineering applications. Compacted soils used in geotechnical constructions such as dams and clayey liners in waste containment facilities can suffer from cracking due to tensile failure. In order to increase soil tensile strength, discrete fibre reinforcement technique was proposed. An innovative tensile apparatus was developed to determine the tensile strength characteristics of fibre reinforced soil. The effects of fibre content, dry density and water co ....etc

disadvantages of plastic as a soil stabilizer

Abstract

This study is an overview of previous studies on lime (quick and hydrated) -treated soil. Lime is the oldest traditional stabilizer used for soil stabilization. The mechanism of soil-lime treatment involves cation exchange, which leads to the flocculation and agglomeration of soil particles. The high pH environment then causes a pozzolanic reaction between the free Ca+2 cations and the dissolved silica and alumina. Lime-treated soil effectively increases the strength, durability and worka ....etc

Soil stabilizers

General

Soils that do not possess the desired characteristics for a particular construction can be improved by adding one or more stabilizers.

Each stabilizer can fulfil one (or at the most two) of the following functions:

Increase the compressive strength and impact resistance of the soil construction, and also reduce its tendency to swell and shrink, by binding the particles of soil together.

Reduce or completely exclude water absorption (causing swelling, shrinking and ab ....etc

Reinforced soil is composite material which is formed by the associating of frictional soil and tension resistant elements in the form of sheets, strips, nets or mats of metal, synthetic fabrics or fibre reinforced plastics and arranged in the soil mass in such a way as to reduce or supress the tensile strain which night develop under gravity and boundary forces. It is well known that most granwar soils are strong in compression and shear and weak in tension. The performance of such soils can be improved by introducing reinforcing elements in t ....etc

REINFORCED EARTH ADVANTAGES
Exceptional Wall Heights
Theoretically, Reinforced Earth can be constructed to any height. Irrespective of the wall height, the details and technique used in the construction of Reinforced Earth wall remain the same. This allows for uniformity in construction control and monitoring. On the other hand, the detailing for conventional walls vary substantially with the height, as the design changes from a cantilever wall to counterfort wall.

High load-carrying capacity
Reinforced Earth wall is capable of supportin ....etc
