Foundation soils play an important role in which undergoing settlements of any structures based on the type of foundation. While constructing embankments on any type of foundation soil a geotechnical engineer faces a difficult problem.So, to overcome these problems, many stabilizing techniques such as adding admixtures, and ground improvement techniques like reinforcement are usedwhetherthe foundation soil is homogeneous or layered.The paper aims to determine the impact of geogrids andthe influence of reinforced granular bed stiffness of embankments founded on soft silty sandand silty sandby using Plaxis-2D software. By considering with and without a table the prediction of Embankment toe Horizontal displacementsand settlements beneath the Embankmentis explainedby varying modular rigidity on silty sand, soft soil, and silty sand.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
