Geogrid Reinforcement in Pavement Design by mercedes is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses the use of geogrid base reinforcement in flexible pavements. The main mechanism is aggregate interlock with the geogrid, which enhances stiffness in the base layer and bridges over weak subgrades. A mechanistic model was developed using finite element analysis to model the stiffened layer from compaction-induced stresses. Field tests showed reduced pavement responses and increased base stiffness with geogrid reinforcement. Proper selection of geosynthetics can reduce pavement thickne
