Laboratory Simulation of Seasonal Wetting-Drying Cycles on Geosynthetic-Reinforced Clay Slopes and Embankments
This paper presents the development and commissioning of a laboratory test equipment to investigate the performance of geosynthetic-reinforced clay subjected to seasonal wetting-drying cycles. This work is a part of an on-going research project that will develop embankment stabilization techniques using geosynthetic reinforcement for highway interchanges and bridge sites. It focuses on how to improve the reliability of the design of geosynthetic-reinforced soil structures using marginal or non-select fills (clays and silts) by incorporating environmentally-induced loading (wetting-drying in clays and freezing-thawing in silts).
