JUTE FABRIC REINFORCED UNPAVED ROAD DESIGN

Analysis and design method of jute fabric reinforced unpaved roads on clay subgrade is presented. Newly developed constitutive relations for two grades of jute fabrics and a silty clay subgrade soil is established. Design charts, appropriate for both the grades of jute fabrics, considering loadings from trucks, minibuses and light cross country vehicles (lccv) are presented. Finally a design example is produced showing contribution from jute reinforced layer. (Author/TRRL)
