SF 9009 REINFORCED SOIL STRUCTURES L T P C
3 0 0 3
OBJECTIVE:
To understand the mechanism of the reinforcement, its influence in the
shear strength and design concept for various applications in geotechnical
engineering.
UNIT I PRINCIPLES AND MECHANISMS OF SOIL REINFORCEMENT 7
Historical Background, Principles, Concepts and Mechanisms of reinforced earth.
UNIT II REINFORCING MATERIALS AND THEIR PROPERTIES 10
Materials used in reinforced soil structures, fill materials, reinforcing materials metal
strips, Geotextile, Geogrids, Geomembranes, Geocomposites and Geojutes,
Geofoam, Natural fibers - facing elements – Properties and methods of Testing.
UNIT III DESIGN OF SOIL REINFORCEMENT 13
Reinforcing the soil-Geotextiles and Geogrids – Embankments and slopes –
reinforced walls – bearing capacity – Road way reinforcement – slop stabilization.
UNIT IV DESIGN FOR SEPARATION, FILTRATION AND DRAINAGE 10
Geotextiles - requirement for design of separation – Filtration – General behaviour -
filtration behind retaining walll, under drains, erosion control and silt fence –
drainage design – Liners for liquid containment – Geomembrance and
Geosynthetic clay liners.
UNIT V DURABILITY OF REINFORCEMENT MATERIALS 5
Measurement of corrosion factors, resistivity - redox potential, water content, pH,
electrochemical corrosion, bacterial corrosion – influence of environmental factors on
the performance of Geosynthetic materials.
TOTAL : 45 PERIODS
