چکیده | ||
Conventional stone columns are widely used to improve soft soils in which high compressibility and low shear strength are observed. In very soft soils, granular columns may undergo excessive bulging due to a lack of lateral support provided by the surrounding soil. Wrapping the granular columns with appropriate geosynthetic material can reduce the total and differential settlements while improving the load-carrying capacity of the reinforced ground. A compacted sand or gravel mat (known as a working platform) placed below the embankment is commonly used to prevent excessive lateral deformation of the foundation’s soft soil. In the circumstance of very high applied load, this granular mat may be further reinforced with a geogrid layer to enhance its effectiveness and control the overall stability of the embankment. This paper presents the results of a series of three-dimensional numerical analyses to study the development of hoop forces in geosynthetic encasement under different combinations of working platform thickness and basal geogrid stiffness. The results showed that for a constant working platform thickness, the hoop forces increased with the height of the embankment. The maximum values of the encasement hoop forces were also observed to reduce significantly as the thickness of the working platform increased | ||
