The Use of Scrap Tire Strips to Improve the Pullout Behavior of Geotextiles
https://orcid.org/http://orcid.org/0000-0002-7481-7406
Mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls have become more popular among the existing options for implementing retaining walls worldwide. Specifically, geotextiles have been used in low-height MSE walls to reduce overall costs and, in some cases, to bring additional advantages as internal drainage, in case of non-woven geotextiles. In contrast, these geosynthetic materials may present relatively large elongation and reduced pullout resistance comparatively to geogrids. The present study proposes a low-cost and environmentally friendly solution for the problems recycling truck scrap tires. A series of pullout tests was performed to evaluate the advantages of using recycled strips of truck scrap tires (385/80/R22.5) as longitudinal members of a non-woven geotextile. Results revealed that adding three longitudinal members (S/H = 3.5) to the non-woven geotextile scrap tire (NGTS) increased the pullout resistance by more than 90% of the ordinary NWGT reinforcement. Using the NGTS reinforcement instead of NWGT also reduced the internal displacements as the scrap tire longitudinal members reduce the necking effect enhancing the geotextile stiffness.
