Direct Shear and Inclined Plane Experimental Activities for Different Interfaces among Geosynthetics and Soils
One of the crucial aspects in design of a landfill capping is the interface behavior between the different layers of the cover system, from the leveling layer above wastes up to the topsoil. Design guidelines and international codes require a geotechnical stability analysis to be performed along every interface. The critical interface is the one which gives the minimum shear resistance, in terms of friction angle and adhesion. Evaluation of the correct values to be used is then essential. Shear resistance at the interface between different geosynthetics or between a geosynthetic and a soil can be measured through laboratory tests. Testing methods are EN ISO 12957-1 and ASTM D5321 (both for direct shear test) and EN ISO 12957-2 (for inclined plane). The paper briefly describes direct shear and inclined plane testing methods and enhances pros and cons. In fact, in the last 25 years the authors have coordinated a great number of the above tests with different types of geosynthetics and soils. The main results of these tests are reported in the paper. The purpose of this work is to validate and increase the already big database of interface strength measured with direct shear tests and to evaluate the differences with the results obtained for the different types of tests. This can give to designers the chance to have a critical approach toward the most suitable testing method to be used according to the specific needs of a project.
