Abstract

In the last few years, the use of geocell reinforcements in various infrastructural projects has gained importance due to its positive benefits. Due to an increased use of geocells in the infrastructure projects, there exists an expansive scope for further research to understand the material better. Hence, the present chapter provides the wide spectrum of knowledge about the geocell reinforcement ranging from characterization to the field implementation. The chapter has been broadly divided into different sections covering detailed characterization, reinforcement mechanisms, design methods, analytical solutions, and the construction practices. The brief summary about the various factors, which influence the behavior of geocell reinforced system, is presented. Further, a detailed note about the field installation procedure and the equipment requirement has been discussed.
