Geosynthetic Materials and its Properties for Reinforced Earth Structures
The national planners have put infrastructures development on priority. This has resulted in transport planning widening of National Highway and new roads in country. Thus work of Retaining Earth (RE) structures/ slopes will be going to design in very large numbers over different areas. The availability of backfill material compatible with geosynthetics reinforcements and economy in both has be...
متن کاملA Parametric Study of the Behavior of Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil Slopes
This paper presents the results of a number of computations using the 2D FEM to show the effects of significant variables on the behavior of geosynthetically reinforced earth slopes. The verification and reliability of the results are primarily examined through comparisons with experimental data available. The results seem to be quite acceptable and can be used with a high degree of reliability...
متن کاملSimplified Procedure to Evaluate Earthquake-induced Residual Displacement of Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil Retaining Walls
Based on a series of shaking table model tests, it was found that the eŠects of 1) subsoil and backˆll deformation, 2) failure plane formation in backˆll, and 3) pullout resistance mobilized by the reinforcements on the seismic behaviors of the geosynthetic reinforced soil retaining walls (GRS walls) were signiˆcant. These eŠects cannot be taken into account in the conventional pseudo-static ba...
متن کاملConsidering the Soil Effects on Design Process of Performance-Based Plastic Design for Reinforced Concrete Structures
In this research, Performance-Based Plastic Design (PBPD) method has been modified according to the proposed method for considering Soil–Structure Interaction (SSI) effects. In the proposed modified method, based on the existing relationships and in order to maintain the simplicity of the PBPD design method, two important parameters have been modified in the PBPD design method. These two parame...
متن کاملProgress of Electric Railways in Japan
In 2001, railways in Japan carried 21.79 billion passengers (25.1% of all passenger transport) or 384.5 billion passenger-km (27% of all passenger transport). Rail freight totalled 59 million tonnes (1.0% of all freight transport) or 22.2 billion tonnekm (3.8% of total), clearly indicating that Japanese railway operators are almost exclusively passenger companies. Following the 1987 privatizati...
