Performance Evaluation and Modified CBR Prediction of Coir Geotextile-Reinforced Pavement Using ABAQUS
Most of the rural roads in India are over soft subgrade which requires improvement. Structural performance of pavement can be evaluated by Benkelman beam deflection test as well as field CBR test. Improving the soil with coir geotextiles is a good option, as coir geotextiles are natural and indigenous materials with higher durability compared to other natural geotextiles. This paper is focusing on the simulation of a numerical model which could predict the modified CBR value of coir geotextile-reinforced soil and variation in deflection with different coir geotextiles using ABAQUS. Such a model could be effectively used to choose the type of coir geotextile suitable for a particular type of soil. Numerical simulation for predicting the variation in deflection of pavement could be effectively used to evaluate the reduction in pavement deflection with the inclusion of coir geotextiles.
