Mejoramiento de la capacidad portante del suelo planificando geotextiles y geomallas para cimentaciones en zonasde baja resistencia

Abstract

The present research evaluates the design procedures of geotextile reinforced foundations, initially in manual form, and then used a software based on finite element stiffness matrices such as PLAXIS module 3D FUNDATION. The process used to improve soil bearing capacity in areas of low resistance in the design of foundations is currently being guided by the USC of innovative materials such as geotextiles and geogrids. To determine the contribution in strength and serviceability of the reinforcement materials, a series of interactions were made in the PLAXIS FUNDATION design software, without considering the presence of geotextiles or geogrids and considering the same for the evaluation and final conclusions.
