Geosynthetic-reinforced slopes are generally compacted fill embankments that incorporate
geosynthetic layers as tensile reinforcement to enhance stability. The reinforcement holds …

The paper presents the results of laboratory model tests on bearing capacity behaviour of a
strip footing resting on the top of a geogrid reinforced flyash slope. A series of model footing …

One of the common features used for improving the bearing capacity of footings adjacent to
a soil slope is reinforcement by geosynthetics. These elements may somehow isolate the …

A series of bearing capacity tests were conducted with an eccentrically (e/B= 0, 1/12, 1/6,
1/3) loaded model surface (D f/B= 0) and shallow (D f/B= 0.25) strip footings (B= 80 mm) …

This study examines the behaviour of square footings located on unreinforced, single-, and
double-layer geocell-reinforced sand slopes through a series of reduced-scale model tests …

Micropiles, on account of their versatility, can serve as both a new foundation and a long-
term option for prevailing foundations without disturbing the subgrade underneath. They can …

Being a waste material, fly ash can be used in large quantities in construction of highway
and railway embankments. This paper presents a series of plane strain model tests carried …

In this study, the influence of the three significant contributing factors affecting the behavior
of the footings resting on the unreinforced and geocell-reinforced sand slopes are …

In the last few decades, many experimental and a few numerical investigations were
performed to investigate the behavior of strip footing placed on the soil slope. However, most …

Estimation of the bearing capacity of a shallow footing located at the crest of a slope is an
intricate problem. The problem becomes much more complicated when multiple numbers of …
