Reinforced Soil Slope

Reinforced Steep Slope is normally defined as compacted fill embankment that incorporates the use of horizontally placed Geosynthetics reinforcement to enhance the stability of the structure. The Slopes with a face angle up to 80° can be stabilised by incorporating layers of Geosynthetics layers (Geogrid/Geotextile) at a suitable vertical spacing. The Geosynthetic layers are laid horizontally back from the slope face in layers. The Tensile strength, vertical spacing and Reinforcement length of the Geosynthetics material depend upon the slope angle, properties of fill material properties and any surcharge loading over the slope. Soft structural facings are provided if the slope angle is greater than 800. Sometimes, an erosion control is provided on the slope surface, and seeding or planting is done to establish vegetation.
