| Popis: | Reinforced subgrade for railways (RSR) is a construction method in which reinforced subgrade is constructed first and a rigid facing wall later to minimize the residual settlement after the service of a roadbed. The RSR was designed and constructed at Osong railway test line in Korea. In this study, load sharing capacities from the reinforced subgrade to the rigid facing wall of it were evaluated through long-term measurement, extending 22 months from the start of roadbed construction to the completion of track construction. Under the condition of 0.4 m geogrid vertical spacing installation, the load sharing proportion of horizontal earth pressure of the rigid facing wall was 9%–22% in the lower part, and lesser in the upper part. The strain of geogrid during construction was 0.607%, which was relatively lower than the designed geogrid tensile strain of 5%. The change in geogrid strain after construction was closely correlated with temperature change in the soil. |
