Using similarity theory as guidance ,the paper designs the laboratory model test on foundation reinforcement by locating lime-soil pile at both side of strip footing, and researches foundation bearing capacity, p-s curve, the magnitude and distribution discipline of the foundation stress before and after reinforcement, and analyzes the load-bearing mechanism, strengthening mechanism and reinforcement effect of the strengthening technology. The results show that the lime-soil pile can effectively improve the foundation bearing capacity, and reduce the amount of ground settlement; under the role of the lime-soil pile, the stress spread lesser to the outside of pile in the ground, and causes the foundation stress to the deeper place.

Laboratory model test results for the ultimate bearing capacity of strip and square foundations supported by sand reinforced with geogrid layers have been presented. Based on the model test results, the critical depth of reinforcement and the dimensions of the geogrid layers for mobilizing the maximum bearing-capacity ratio have been determined and compared. Key words : bearing capacity, geogrid, model test, reinforced sand, shallow foundation.

The load-bearing capacity of a weak clay subgrade can be increased by placing a strong granular base course of limited thickness on top of the clay layer. The load-bearing capacity can be increased further, or the thickness of the granular base course can be reduced, by separating both layers by a geogrid. Laboratory model test results for the ultimate bearing capacity of a rigid strip loading on the surface of a granular soil underlain by a soft clay with a layer of geogrid at the interface of the two soils are presented. The optimum thickness of the granular soil layer and the critical width of the geogrid layer required to derive the maximum benefit from the reinforcement were determined. Model test results on the permanent settlement of the rigid strip load caused by cyclic loading of low frequency are presented.

A laboratory model test of tunnel anchor was conducted to investigate its pullout mechanism and bearing capacity. Surface and rock deformation, strain and stress were measured during the entire model test process. The results show that: under pull out load, tensile failure first occurs in top surface rock near the anchor, then shear failure occurs in anchor-rock interface and rock around the anchor. The failure surface is inverted cone from the anchor bottom. Under 50 times design cable force tunnel rock is in elastic stage, suggesting that current tunnel anchor design is quite conservative and can be further optimized.
