The use of geosynthetics to consolidate an access road

摘要

Geosynthetic materials are made from polymers of high stability and durability that can be processed to reach the requirements of tensile strength and strain and to ensure good adhesion of reinforced earth.To estimate the internal stability of reinforced soil massifs have been developed methods based on static equilibrium analysis of the active area and limit equilibrium methods, each of these methods taking into account the influence of different factors acting on earth massive. The article treats the solution to consolidate a landslide affecting the access road to a ski slope, using a modern solution for supporting. According to the geotechnical study, the sliding surface is located at a depth of approx. 3.50 m. It was designed as a solution for consolidating a support structure of reinforced soil with geogrid. The facing of welded mesh used for the reinforced soil is named Textomur. The facing elements of Textomur are 5 m long and are made of steel bars with a diameter of 8-10 mm, while the length reinforced is determined according to the design. The angle of inclination may be from 55° to vertical. Another way is the net bending edge welded to the wall to form the front. The structures where the metallic facing is used have the disadvantage of corrosion. To collect water outflow from the slope and prevent seepage into the body bench of reinforced soil have been designed works to intercept and drain rainwater.
