Effect of geosynthetic reinforcement inclusion on the strength parameters and bearing ratio of a fine soil

Autor: Maria de Lurdes Lopes, David Miranda Carlos, Margarida Pinho-Lopes

This paper reports an investigation on the beneficial effects of reinforcing a fine soil with a geosynthetic (reinforcement geocomposite) and their behaviour under loading. The effectiveness of the reinforcement was investigated through triaxial and
