Original research · free full-paper access · authors credited

Research overview

Field plate-loading tests compare geosynthetic reinforcement and rockfill over soft clay. Placement and reinforcement type affect deformation; the tested sections do not establish universal pavement thickness reductions.

Kontain’s reading note. Refer to the original paper for the authors’ full methods, findings and limitations.
