Evaluating the Shear Strength of Subbase-subgrade Interface Using Large Scale Direct Shear Test [PDF]
The inclusion of geogrid in road pavements can improve pavement performance through increasing the lateral confinement, bearing capacity, and overall rigidity of the pavement, as well as reducing the vertical and lateral pavement deformations.

Development of Geocapillary Barrier System for Water Retention in Highway Landscaping
This study investigates the potential use of geosynthetic materials as capillary barriers to enhance water retention in landscaping soils. The soil was first classified using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS); then, the Van Genuchten model was used to model and compare the unsaturated hydraulic characteristics of the soil and geosynthetic ...

Influencia de la inclusión de desecho de PVC sobre el CBR de un material granular tipo subbase en al ciudad de Trujillo [PDF]
In the present investigation aimed to determine the influence of the inclusion of PVC waste on a type CBR subbase granular material in the city of Trujillo. PVC waste as material addition was used to modify the behavior of a granular subbase.

Expansive soils cause volume changes because they swell and lose strength when wet and shrink when dried. Light buildings and pavements constructed over such soils will not last long due to settlement and cyclic volume changes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to blend black cotton soil with cement and waste glass powder (WGP) in order to ...
