The cement-mixed gravel, which is used in the construction of railway embankment, is a relatively more expensive material compared to sandy soil. Having said that, it is used where small residual settlement is required for example, abutment transition ...

Proposed Design Graphs of Geotextile Reinforcement on Soft Clay under Various Field Conditions
This paper describes the behavior of reinforced embankments constructed on soft clay subgrade with varying compressible depths, embankment slopes and embankment heights. The stability of the embankment is evaluated using the Bishop method. The resistance

Selected Physical and Geotechnical Properties of Loess in Wairarapa Valley, New Zealand
Loess up to 10 m thick covers marine terraces, old river aggradation terraces, and gentle hill country slopes in Wairarapa, New Zealand. In the drier eastern and southern parts of Wairarapa, the loess is subject to dry summer and autumn and wet winter and spring in most years.

Research on Optimized Seismic Design of Geogrid-reinforced Road Embankment
:To study the seismic design of subgrade engineering, subgrade seismic damage of Wenchuan 8.0 Earthquake was investigated. Two damage types of un-reinforced road embankment under earthquake were found, including slope collapsing and pavement cracking ...
