In the proceedings of: GeoVancouver 2016: 69th Canadian Geotechnical ConferenceSession: GROUND IMPROVEMENT - II
ABSTRACT: For some time, geotextiles and synthetic fibers are used to improve mechanical properties of soils. Based on the successful application of this type of reinforcement, some countries where the cost of reinforcement is a constraining factor are actually case of Haiti which wants to promote renewable and environmental friendly solutions in soil reinforcement. The goal of this UU triaxial tests.
RÉSUMÉ: Pendant longtemps, les géotextiles et fibres synthétiques ont été utilisés pour améliorer les propriétés mécaniques des de ces méthodes est un facteur contraignant sont en train de mener des recherches pour avoir des résultats similaires avec des solutions Morne Delmas » en Haïti.
