A Review on Analysis of Embankment on Soft Ground Using PLAXIS 2D
Soft deposits are typically extremely compressible subsoil features, such as uncontrolled settlement brought on by subsoil failure of bearing capacity. The drawback of building on soft ground is that it might instantly drive-up construction costs. On soft soil, geosynthetics have been used more frequently as reinforcement in road embankments but even after the construction of the embankment, settlement takes place. In order to mitigate settlement issues in embankments, the incorporation of a geosynthetic product within the soft ground is essential. The computational framework chosen for this study enables the creation of diverse soil models. However, to replicate the characteristics of the soft soil and embankment fill accurately, the Mohr–Coulomb model, known for its simplicity, practical significance, and availability of requisite data, is employed. This particular model is widely embraced by geotechnical engineering practitioners. It facilitated the execution of numerical simulations based on both geotechnical research and on-site observations. The primary aim of this review article is to provide an overview of geosynthetic material’s utilization for reinforcing road embankments constructed over soft soil conditions.
