A multilayered, mathematical model for analyzing the ultimate bearing capacity of soil subgrades and asphalt pavements is presented. Theoretical considerations and mathematical derivations of limit equilibrium equations, based on plasticity principles. Sponsored by Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, Frankfort and Federal Highway Administration, Frankfort, KY. Kentucky Div.
The U.S. Army design procedure to stabilize low-bearing capacity soil with geotextiles is based on the assumption that the applied surface load (the w...
Thawing fine-grained soils are often saturated and have extremely low bearing capacity. Geosynthetics are used to reinforce unsurfaced roads on weak, ...
