Inhaltsangabe

The completely revised and extended Recommendations deal with all questions relevant to the planning and dimensioning of geosynthetics-reinforced earth structures. In addition to the demands on materials and analysis principles, the applications of geosynthetics in a range of foundation systems, ground improvement measures, highways engineering projects, in slopes and retaining structures, and in landfill engineering are discussed.
 
The Recommendations have been supplemented by the following sections:
- reinforced earth structures over point or linear bearing elements,
- foundation systems using geotextile-encased columns,
- bridging subsidence,
- dynamic actions of geosynthetic-reinforced systems.
 
The remaining sections have been fundamentally revised and updated in line with current standards and codes of practice.
 

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Working Group 5.2 'Analysis and Dimensioning of Soil Structures using Geosynthetic Reinforcements' forms part of the Technical Group 'Synthetics in Geotechnical Engineering' of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geotechnik e.V. (DGGT). It comprises approximately 30 specialists gathered from science, industry, and building-related agencies and employers. They meet and work on a voluntary basis.

Der Arbeitskreis 5.2 "Berechnung und Dimensionierung von Erdkörpern mit Bewehrungseinlagen aus Geokunststoffen" gehört zur Fachsektion "Kunststoffe in der Geotechnik" der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Geotechnik e.V. (DGGT). Er setzt sich aus ca. 30 Fachleuten aus Wissenschaft, Industrie, Bauverwaltung und Bauherrenschaft zusammen und arbeitet auf ehrenamtlicher Basis.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The design and execution of earth structure using geosynthetic reinforcements is based on DIN 1054, 2005 edition, the European execution standard EN 14475 (reinforced fill) and ZTV E-StB, 2009 edition, with the associated terms of delivery, and the Geosynthetics Fact Sheet. Continuing on from the first edition in 1997 these EBGEO Recommendation employ the partial safety factor concept.

In addition to analysis and verification fundamentals and the demands placed on construction materials (ground, geosynthetics) several sections deal with the various applications:

• Embackments on soft soils,
• einforced foundation pads,
• Transport routes,
• Retaining structures,
• Landfill engineering –reinforcement of surface-parallel stratified systems,
• Reinforced earth structures over point or linear bearing elements,
• Foundation systems using geotextile-encased columns,
• Overbridging systems in areas prone to subsidence,
• Dynamic actions on geosynthetic-reinforced systems.

Examples are provided to clarify the Recommendations.

With the publication of these EBGEO Recommendations the German Geotechnical Society’s (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geotechnik e. V. (DGGT)) Working Group AK 5.2 ‘Analysis and Dimensioning of Soil Structures using Geosynthetic Reinforcements’ supports construction practitioners in the design and analysis of geosynthetic-reinforced earth structures. The Recommendations are therefore regarded as ‘best structures’ and as supplementing standards.
