“…6a, where the indicated terms such as the placement depth of the rst reinforcement layer from the footing base (represented by u), the vertical spacing between the reinforcement layers (represented by h), number of layers of reinforcement (represented by N), and the width of reinforcement (represented by B r ) are the geometrical parameters. The reinforcement materials placed at optimum conditions show the improved higher load-carrying capacity [9][10]. Based on the earlier ndings of Buragadda and Thyagaraj [15], the optimum geometrical parameters of = 0.31, = 0.3, = 4, and = 3.5 have been used in the present study, and these parameters are reported by Buragadda and Thyagaraj [15] corresponding to the same properties of jute geotextile reinforcement as used in the present study.…”
