Reinforced Piled Embankments for Sustainable Infrastructure Development
Abstract The Geosynthetic Reinforced Piled Embankment Systems provide cost economic solutions for the construction of high embankments even on very soft clay soils. They are fast to construct and enable the usage of marginal locally available soils to help in sustainable growth of infrastructure. These systems consist of cement concrete columns acting as pile columns and basal reinforcement at the ground level below the embankment. The design of these systems relies on empirical methods leading to uneconomical solutions. Especially, the design of such embankments resting on floating piles in thick soft clay soils is extremely conservative. No detailed guidelines are available for such cases. Through numerical simulation studies, this paper brings out the performance of these embankments under progressive consolidation of the foundation soil. More accurate arching coefficients are proposed for the design of these systems.
