Embankment on piles with horizontal reinforcement
The “geosynthetic-reinforced soil on piles” foundation system is virtually settlement-free and thus ideal for rapid embankment construction. The soil reinforcement for the soft ground is provided by a combination of piles, and earthworks reinforced by high strength geogrids (e.g., Fortrac) and geotextiles (e.g., Stabilenka).
Advantages:
More Applications
Embankment basal reinforcement with high strength geotextiles and geogrids
Fast construction of high embankments over soft soil requires high strength geotextiles at the base for stability against slip failure
>>
Prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) for accelerated consolidation of soft soils
Consolidation can be accelerated by installing vertical drains to a depth of up to 35 meters, shortening its settlement rate from several years to several months.
