Experimental study of shear behaviour of high density polyethylene reinforced sand under triaxial compression
Soil reinforcement is an ancient technique which involves the addition of tensile elements like plastics in the soil to increase its engineering properties like shear strength, settlement, cohesion and bearing capacity. In consideration of this, a series of triaxial tests were undertaken to investig...
