The One

There are three normal sizes of loading plate as 30 cm, 50 cm, 75 cm in roadbed compaction quality detection. The size effect rule for coefficient of foundation is obtained from the investigation on plate load test results by the experiment in lab. The laboratory test may control well the conditions by building the test section modeling the roadbed. The test section is 15 m by 5m. The diameters of loading plate used is 30cm, 35cm, 40cm, 45cm, 50cm, 55cm, 60cm, 65cm, 70cm and 75cm in the test. The regression equation between coefficients of foundation measured by different size of loading plate has been concluded. It is obtained that the ratio of coefficients of foundation between the plate of 50 cm and 30cm is 1.6 for granule filler, 1.65 for grind filler, and the one between the plate of 70 cm and 30cm is 2.17 for granule filler, 2.3 for grind filler.

The experimental investigation on the effects of granular fill and geogrid reinforced granular fill on the behaviour of the static liquefaction potential of the subsoil is reported in this study. A series of plate load test were carried out with different thickness of the granular fill, number of geogrid layers, and size/dimension of the footing. The test results were presented in terms of bearing capacity and subgrade modulus for the settlement ofδ10,δ15, andδ20. The experimental results revealed that the introduction of granular fill significantly increases the bearing capacity and effectively control the settlement behaviour of the footing. The introduction of geogrid in granular fill enhanced the Percentage of Control in Settlement and Bearing Capacity Ratio by a maximum of 328.54% and 203.41%, respectively. The introduction of geogrid in granular fill interrupts the failure zone of the granular fill and enhances the subgrade modulus of the footing by a maximum of 255.55%; in addition subgrade modulus of the footing was increased with an increase in the number of geogrid layers. Based on the test results it is suggested that the footing with large size has beneficial improvement on the reinforced granular fill.
