Abstract
Result of field test on load-settlement of full-scale foundation, resting on soil reinforced with concrete-grid is presented. The test was carried out at 3 different points within a construction site in Minsk, Belarus. The test points were characterized by different soil conditions below the reinforced base. Result of the study shows that, the use of concrete-grid as reinforcement for subsoil base under foundation, generally reduces the settlement and increases the bearing capacity of the soil, although, these were significantly affected by the type and properties of the soil below the reinforced layer. Key words: Bearing capacity, concrete-grid, foundation, load-settlement, modulus of deformation, soil reinforcement.
