Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Field and laboratory tests were conducted on 18 full-scale, geosynthetic reinforced, roadway test sections located in Marked Tree, Arkansas. Base course, geosynthetic, and subgrade samples were collected, and pavement depth, in-situ density and in-situ hydraulic conductivity measurements were obtained during a geotechnical site investigation. The performance of sections containing geotextile products being used for separation and filtration (Carthage Mills FX-66, Mirafi 570, Propex 2006, Propex 2044, and Propex 4553) was investigated.
Moisture content, sieve analysis, Atterberg limits, modified proctor, specific gravity, and hydraulic conductivity tests were performed on the acquired soil samples. Transmissivity and permittivity testing was conducted on the …
