Fatigue Performance of Double-Layered Asphalt Concrete Beams Reinforced with New Type of Geocomposites
PublicationThe reinforcement of asphalt layers with geosynthetics has been used for several decades, but proper evaluation of the influence of these materials on pavement fatigue life is still a challenging task. The presented study investigates a novel approach to the reinforcement of asphalt layers using a new type of geogrid composite, in which square or hexagonal polypropylene stiff monolithic paving grid with integral junctions is bonded...

The effect of multiaxial geocomposite reinforcement on fatigue performance and crack propagation delay in double-layered asphalt beams
PublicationThe presented study investigates the effect of a recently developed multiaxial geocomposite made of polypropylene geogrid and non-woven fabric on the delay of crack propagation, based on four-point bending tests of large asphalt concrete beams – both for reinforced and non-reinforced specimens. Several approaches are described in this study, including analysis of stiffness modulus decrease and analysis of crack propagation using...

Zastosowanie nowatorskich materiałów geosyntetycznych w konstrukcjach oporowych z gruntu zbrojonego
PublicationArtykuł prezentuje metodę projektowania stromych skarp wznoszonych z gruntów słabo przepuszczalnych, zbrojonych geosiatkami drenującymi. Z analiz przeprowadzonych dla różnej wodoprzepuszczalności gruntu i różnej geometrii skarpy wynika, że pionowy rozstaw i długość zbrojenia mają istotne znaczenie dla stateczności skarpy. Dla gruntów słabo przepuszczalnych, o typowych wartościach współczynników ściśliwości objętościowej oraz konsolidacji,...
