Large Triaxial Compression Tests of Sand Reinforced with Geotextile

Reinforcement Effect on Dynamic Properties of Saturated Sand

Dynamic behavior of soil are evaluated relative to a number of factors including: strain level, density, number of cycles, material type, fine content, geosynthetic inclusion, saturation, and effective stress .This paper investigate the dynamic behavior of saturated reinforced sand under cyclic stress condition. The cyclic triaxial tests are conducted on remolded specimens under various CSR whi...

strength evaluation of wet reinforced silty sand by triaxial test

conventional investigations on the behavior of reinforced and unreinforced soils are often investigated at the failure point. in this paper, a new concept of comparison of the behavior of reinforced and unreinforced soil by estimating the strength and strength ratio (deviatoric stress of reinforced sample to unreinforced sample) at various strain levels is proposed. a comprehensive set of labor...

Effect of Cementation on the Shear Strength of Tehran Gravelly Sand Using Triaxial Tests

Investigation of Stress-Strain Behavior of Plastic Concrete Using Monotonic Triaxial Compression Tests

In this paper, the mechanical behavior of plastic concrete being used in the cut-off walls of earth dams has been studied. To do the task, triaxial compression tests on the specimens in various ages and mix designs under different confining pressures have been done and the stress-strain behavior of such materials and their strength parameter changes has been experimentally investigated. It has ...

Field Performance of Geotextile Reinforced Sludge Caps

Geosynthetic reinforced capping of highwater content waste materials is becoming an efficient and economic way of dealing with the confinement of the contaminants. To define the filtration performance of sludge-geotextile systems and investigate their durability, ten sludge lagoon test cells were constructed using of a lightweight fill, i.e. a wood chip/soil mixture over different geotextiles. ...
