The addition of cementitious admixtures and/or inclusion of fibers are frequently used in
practice to stabilize soils and to improve their mechanical properties. In this study, ring shear …

The inclusion of oriented or randomly distributed discrete elements, such as fibers, to
reinforce soil has recently attracted increasing attention in geotechnical engineering. The …

The purpose of this investigation was to identify and quantify the effect of numerous
variables on the performance of fiber-stabilized sand specimens. Laboratory unconfined …

The shear strength behaviour of randomly distributed dry fibre-reinforced sand has been
extensively studied in recent decades. However, in foundation applications, sand will rarely …

Randomly distributed fiber reinforcement is used to provide an isotropic increase in the sand
shear strength. The previous studies were not consistent regarding the fibers effect on the …

The inclusions of geosynthetic materials (fibers, geomembranes and geotextiles) is a new
improvement technique that ensures uniformity in the soil during construction. The use of …

Triaxial compression tests were conducted to evaluate the response of randomly distributed
fibre on the strength of reinforced silty sand. In this study, oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) …

Soil reinforcement through the inclusion of oriented or randomly distributed discrete
elements such as fibres has recently attracted increasing attention in geotechnical …

Results of consolidated-drained and consolidated-undrained triaxial tests conducted on
fibre-reinforced cement-treated sand–gravel mixtures are described in present study. The …

This experimental investigation evaluates the compressibility and small strain stiffness of
sand reinforced with discrete synthetic fibers. Varying fiber contents (FC), fiber aspect ratios …
