Investigation into the Efficiency of Strengthening of Subgrade at the Proof Ground of Road Surface
Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2014, Vol 22, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of the investigation is the analysis of strengthening systems of road surfaces situated at the weak subgrade. The paper presents three systems of strengthening of road surface using geotextiles. The results of the analysis of road surface deformation moduli values are discussed. The value of deformation modulus on the basis of measurements of vertical displacements of loaded road surface was calculated. The investigations at the proof ground of road surface was executed. Particular efficiency of the use of GEOWEB cellular mattress as strengthening of road surface was confirmed.
