Impact tests of stones on a geotextile or two loosely connected geotextiles (composites) have been performed and analysed to investigate the mechanisms that lead perforation. The were mounted concrete cylinder 0.8 m internal diameter, filled with uniformly graded dry sand. Drop blocks different shapes weighing approximately 40 kg. drop heights varied between 0.25 5.5 m. Results show shape stone...

This work was carried out in Antioquia, Colombia, a collection of the Furcraea and Agave genera, important country for manufacturing strings, sacks, geotextiles, handicrafts Currently, to enhance its use, applications have been developed textiles, biodegradable materials thermo-acoustic insulation, among others. The aim this study characterize phenotypically agronomically 94 accessions. variabl...

This research investigated the effects of types cohesive-frictional soil and geotextile reinforcement configurations on bearing capacity reinforced foundation (RSF) structures, via laboratory test numerical simulation. The four studied for RSF included: (i) horizontal planar form geotextile, (ii) full-wraparound ends (iii) with filled-in sand, (iv) sand backfill. soils were mixtures fine sodium...

This research paper validates the significance of an assimilated attitude when choosing design subgrade railways constructed from fine sands in difficult engineering and geological conditions desert steppe territories Uzbekistan to ensure their sustainability with modern technologies materials. The analysis results obtained calculations stability coefficient structure embankment. characteristic...

Vehicle load is a dynamic and embankment static load. These two types can act simultaneously to accelerate the consolidation rate of ground under embankment, which then leads differential settlement. This settlement dangerous as it cause sudden bouncing shock for vehicles on road. There are also other problems such reduction in exploitation capacity construction work due speed going through pos...
