• Abstract:
  soil-geosynthetic composite (KSGC) for a wide range of geosynthetics. The tests were conducted after establishment of test configurations that were found suitable for specification of geosynthetic-stabilized base roadways. Field performance of experimental test sections that were constructed using the same geosynthetics as those tested in the experimental program was also evaluated. By comparing the field performances to the KSGC values obtained using soil-geosynthetic interaction tests, a threshold value for selection of geosynthetics for base
  
  stabilization was identified. Recommendations were made to implement findings of this project into TxDOT DMS-6240
