Finite Element Modeling of Geogrid-Reinforced Unpaved Road
In this study, finite element modeling of the geogrid-reinforced unpaved road has been done in PLAXIS 3D to investigate the benefit of geogrid reinforcement on the rutting behavior of pavement. The effect of the location of geogrid, its axial stiffness, and subgrade CBR on the performance of reinforced unpaved roads is discussed in this study. The use of geogrid reinforcement at 1/3rd from the bottom of the base layer is better than the top and middle position of geogrid in the base layer. The performance of geogrid reinforcement increases with an increase in axial stiffness of geogrid. The results also suggest that the use of geogrid reinforcement with proper tensile strength in the unpaved road is an economical and suitable solution for subgrade CBR of ≤ 4%.
