Abstract

This report presents a study of the strength and deformation characteristics of plain, cemented and reinforced sandfill. An assessment of various chemical agents and mechanical reinforcement as well as their applicabilities has been made, and the requirements of a reinforced sandfill system were identified. Triaxial and direct shear tests results have been reported for the shear strength behaviour of plain, cemented and reinforced sandfill. The effects of parameters such as orientation of reinforcement, concentration of reinforcement, particle segregation, moisture content and shear band angle on strength performance were examined (a).
