Description

A Large variety of reinforcing materials emerged and have been developed for construction purposes, including: metal strips ,bar mats, Geotextile sheets, Geo Grids etc. Reinforced soil technologies has been extensively used during the past few decades in the construction of (railway formation, highway embankments, earth dams and retaining walls). As a reinforcing material the Geo synthetics are widely used in engineering practice to strengthen the foundation, slope, road, pavement, crushed-stone column etc. In pavement construction soil stabilization also deals with the construction practice(Highways, dams, bridges, railway structures)it shows the various mean by which the stabilization responds of different soils can be identified. This paper presents soil geosynthetic interaction properties for red soil, Red soil was used along with geosynthetic fiber, the geosynthetic used here is Recron-3S. The properties of the soil were evaluated and the strength characteristics of the soil with and without the use of Recron-3S were found out. This experiment evaluates the effect of the Recron-3s on the some basic engineering properties of soil. The performance in terms of CBR value and UCS of the soil were found out. The strength of the soil increased with the use of Recron-3S
