The land scarcity has built up the pressure on the engineers to bring a cost-effective and time-saving solution to utilize the ground with poor strength as a foundation bed for various structures. With the recent progress in the area of ground reinforcing techniques using geosynthetics, the extensive usage of geotextile materials as a reinforcing element in the soil to strengthen the load-bearing capacity of the soil mass and reducing the anticipated settlement of the footing pushes the researchers to evolve new methods to maximize the advantages received from the reinforced earth beds. In the above context, the provision of reinforcing layers with wraparound ends has brought additional improvement in the load settlement behavior of a strip footing resting over such reinforced soil mass but this recently developed technique lacks the appropriate guidelines/recommendations for the geometrical configuration parameters of the reinforcing layer to maximize the benefit from the reinforcing layer. Given the above, a comprehensive numerical study has been conducted to propose some recommendations on the geometrical configurations of the reinforcing layers. Furthermore, this study also investigates the influence of the geogrid–soil interface on the load-settlement response of the reinforced bed under vertical footing load. From the findings of the study, it is concluded that the width of the geogrid layers, governs the overall load-bearing capacity of the reinforced soil mass system, besides it, also suggests an optimum width of the geogrid layers, which equals 1.5 times the width of the footing should be used to maximize the effective utilization of the wraparound technique. Furthermore, it was also noted that appropriate assessment of the interface between soil and geogrid may bring an optimized design of the reinforced soil mass as a foundation bed for the footings.
