Behavior of a strip footing on reinforced soil subjected to inclined load

Behavior of a strip footing on reinforced soil subjected to inclined load

This study investigates the behavior of a strip footing under inclined load on reinforced sandy soil by using experimental model. The effect of the load inclination angle (α), number of geogrid layers (N) and the relative density (RD) on the bearing capacity, settlement and horizontal displacement w...

The effect of the load inclination angle (α), number of geogrid layers (N) and the relative density (RD) on the bearing capacity, settlement and horizontal displacement were studied. The results showed that by increasing the number of reinforcement layers (N), the bearing capacity increased, but there is an optimum value (N=4-5) depending on relative density of supporting soil. Also the settlement and horizontal displacement of footing decreasing with increase number of reinforcement layers.https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201816201022
