BEHAVIOUR OF GEOGRID (HDPE) CONFINED WITH REINFORCED CLAY SOIL

Soft clay is normally avoided during construction due to it slow bearing capacity and high. Susceptibility of consolidation. These for bearing capacity of soft clay are considerably increased. With insertion of geo-grid at suitable depth from the foundation. Present research is intended to. Study of tri-axial test sand UCS to understand the effect of geo-grid on modification of strength. Parameters of soft clay. It is also observed that maximum improvement in axial stress is achieved when the geo-grid are Place data depth of one fourth of the loading diameter. Soil stabilization is a mechanical or chemical alteration of one or more soil properties to create an improved soil material possessing the desired engineering properties. Cost-effective soil stabilization technology has been a fundamental part of any construction and is very important for economic growth in any country. In some cases, construction has been challenged due to the high cost of soil stabilization processes. Besides, methods of stabilizations using common stabilizing agents are getting costly. Currently, there is a growing interest to identify new and green technology to improve construction techniques and to expand the road network. Currently, the use and production of HDPE geo-grid is becoming the most promising key for the advancement of a country by saving time, energy, and finance. It also reduces environmental pollution due to carbon emission by the conventional stabilizers.
