Abstract

Soil is considered as one of the oldest and the most complicated materials of construction. Due to the scarcity of land with suitable soil in urban areas, engineers had to use a low resistance ground. Designers of geotechnical components encounter more problems than designers of steel or concrete components. The materials used in steel and concrete components are produced by human kind, so there is some clear ideas about their special parameters and behaviors, but in determination of real character istic and behaviors of soil or stone, in various conditions, we encounter some problems and ambiguities. Thus, their behavior are very important. To equip the soil is considered as a method of construction. recently, equipment of soil with polymeric components in order to enhance the stability of the soil, has attracted attention of researcher and desingners in geotechnical field. It is necessary to be informed of the influence of equippers on the behaviors of the soil in various geotechnical affairs. There are some considerable progressions on the geosynthetic materials and their applications. They are used in performing many construction plans extensively. Regarding this, applications of geotextile as a textile of geosynthetical materials have increased in geotechnic engineering for separation and segration, filteration, drainage, enhancement bearing capacity and protection of the soil. In this experimental study, the bearing capacity of reinforced soil by three kind of geotextile and under the different arrangements has been investigated. Since most of performed operation in the study have been done in flat homage, the arrangement of equippers in three-dimension condition are considerable. The purpose of the study is to determine the position of equippers which is done for the highest level of resistance. Also in the present study has been discussed the effect of cemented geotextile in various lengths of reinforcing on bearing capacity of soil.
