Lateral Earth Pressure in Non-Cohesive Soils, Reinforced with Geotextiles in the Light of Laboratory Research
Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2016, Vol 32, Issue 4
Abstract
The subject of the paper is the non-cohesive medium layer with geotextiles reinforced as foundation in communication building engineering. The influence of horizontal bidirectional reinforcement on the change of value of horizontal pressure in the laboratory physical models of ground medium layer is estimated. The most important effects reinforcement have been observed, regarding increasing model load capacity.
