| Title: | Effectiveness of Geosynthetics in Stabilizing Soft Subgrades | |
| PI: | Tuncer Edil Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Wisconsin-Madison |
|
| Project: | This research will determine laboratory properties of geosynthetics and breaker run and evaluate the performance of test sections constructed with and without geosynthetic reinforcement of the subgrade. The reinforced subgrade will be tested for stability and instrumented and monitored for two years. Field behavior will be compared to predictions generated from the laboratory. | |
