Abstract In the recent past, the wraparound geosynthetic reinforcement technique has been recommended for constructing the geosynthetic-reinforced soil foundations. This paper presents the development of an analytical expression for estimating the ultimate bearing capacity of strip footing resting on soil bed reinforced with geosynthetic reinforcement having the wraparound ends. The wraparound ends of the geosynthetic reinforcement are considered to provide the shearing resistance at the soil-geosynthetic interface as well as the passive resistance due to confinement of soil by the geosynthetic reinforcement. The values of ultimate load-bearing capacity determined by using the developed analytical expression agree well with the model footing load test values as reported in the literature.

环绕式土工合成材料加固技术加固土床条形基础极限承载力

摘要 近年来，在土工合成材料加筋地基的施工中推荐采用环绕式土工合成材料加筋技术。本文提出了一种分析表达式的发展，用于估计搁置在土床上的条形基础的极限承载力，该土床采用具有环绕端的土工合成材料加固。土工合成材料加筋的环绕端被认为提供了土壤-土工合成材料界面处的剪切阻力以及由于土工合成材料加筋对土壤的限制而产生的被动阻力。使用开发的分析表达式确定的极限承载能力值与文献中报告的模型基础载荷测试值非常吻合。
