Benefits of geosynthetic reinforcement in widening of embankments subjected to foundation differential settlement
In the present study, physical model tests were conducted to investigate the effect of the geogrid reinforcement on the reduction of the differential settlement in widening of a highway embankment. A water bag filled with water and placed beneath an embankment was used to simulate the soft foundation of the widened portion of the embankment in the physical model test. Water from the water bag w...
متن کاملFlexural Behavior of Polyester Polymer Concrete Subjected to Different Chemicals
Polymer concrete (PC) is a composite material prepared by resin and aggregates. Advantages of polymer concretes include rapid curing at ambient temperatures, high flexural and compressive strengths, excellent chemical resistance and low permeability. In this research, a comparative study was performed on degradation of polyester resin concrete in different chemical solutions. Polymer concrete s...
متن کاملStrain Behavior of Concrete Panels Subjected to Different Nose Shapes of Projectile Impact
This study evaluates the fracture properties and rear-face strain distribution of nonreinforced and hooked steel fiber-reinforced concrete panels penetrated by projectiles of three different nose shapes: sharp, hemispherical, and flat. The sharp projectile nose resulted in a deeper penetration because of the concentration of the impact force. Conversely, the flat projectile nose resulted in sha...
متن کاملAramid Fiber Mesh as Reinforcement of Concrete Panels Subjected to High Strain Rates
Because of their high strength and energy dissipation capacity, aramid fibers are used widely as the material of choice for body armor and similar applications. Their use as reinforcement of concrete panels, whether prestressed or not, poses significant challenges because of their relatively low fiber-to-fiber friction coefficient and limited bond strength between fibers and cementitious matrix...
متن کاملInfluence of differential settlement on pavement structure of widened roads based on large-scale model test
This study introduced at first the background of numerous highway widening projects that have been developed in recent years in China. Using a large ground settlement simulator and a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain sensor network system, a large-scale model test, with a similarity ratio of 1:2, was performed to analyze the influence of differential settlement between new and old subgrades on p...
