Suffusion restraint in gap-graded soil reinforced with fibers

Suffusion restraint in gap-graded soil reinforced with fibers

To study how gap-graded soil reinforced with fibers of different types restrains suffusion in embankment dams, the hydraulic response of fiber-reinforced soil (FRS) containing polypropylene fibers (PPF), coir fibers (CF) or basalt-tape fibers (BTF) was investigated in one-dimensional seepage tests....
