In this application, stronger geosynthetics are required than those used for separation alone, thus the cost of the material is somewhat increased. Bid prices for stabilization geosynthetics are typically on the order of $1.20 to $3.60/m2. Cost tradeoffs should also be evaluated for different construction and geosyn-thetic combinations. This should include subgrade preparation and equipment control versus geosynthetic survivability. In general, stronger, higher survivability geosynthetics will [...] In-place cost of geosynthetic barriers can vary from approximately $3.00/m2 to $19.00/m2. Cost of conven-tional compacted clay liners can vary between approximately $6.00/m2 to $30.00/m2 per meter depth in-place, depending on the availability and hauling distance. However, in these applications, the savings are not just from the cost difference between the geosynthetic and the replaced material, but more significant-ly from the value of the volume of space saved by using very thin geosynthetic [...] the clay with more stable geotechnical materials and using geosynthetics with high in-terface properties (e.g., roughened sheet geomembranes). These improvements allow for the possibility of designing steeper side slopes than could be safely constructed if clay materials were used for the liner and/or cap systems.

The cost and placement of all backfill material will be included in the pay quantity for embankment or borrow excavation, as applicable. 145-9.2 [...] as shown in the Plans. In general, place the geosynthetics used for slope stabilization such that its primary direction of tensile strength is perpendicular to the plan face of the slope. Pull the geosynthetic material tight, and secure it as necessary to lay flat against the soil prior to fill placement. Place adjacent rolls of geosynthetic to maintain 100% horizontal coverage at the face of the slope. When placing geosynthetic for curved embankments, do not allow less (REV 5-24-17) (FA [...] do not meet the required criteria, reject the material and reconstruct with acceptable material. 145-8 Method of Measurement. 145-8.1 Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil Slopes: The quantity to be paid for will be the plan quantity area, in square feet, of the projected vertical height of the slope face, measured from the top of slope to the proposed final ground line at the toe of slope and from the beginning to end limits as shown in the Plans, regardless of the length or number of layers of

Geogrid-geotextile composite geosynthetics, also known as geocomposites or hybrid geosynthetics, represent a significant advancement in slope stabilization technology. These materials combine the tensile reinforcement capabilities of geogrids with the filtration and drainage properties of geotextiles into a single integrated product . The growing frequency of rainfall-triggered landslides worldwide has intensified research interest in these dual-function materials, particularly for their [...] Temperature differences have a large influence on the mechanism of geosynthetic-reinforced slopes. In high-temperature environments, geosynthetic materials, particularly polypropylene, tend to suffer from creep, which is time-dependent deformation of materials under constant stress conditions. Temperature has a significant intensifying effect on this material property, which, in turn, affects the efficiency of geosynthetics in compromising the stability in geosynthetically reinforced slopes [...] Geosynthetics is a planar product manufactured from different types of polymers and utilized in cooperation with soil, rock, earth, or other geotechnical-related materials as a homogeneous part of a civil engineering structure . Additionally, industries like mining and agriculture employ geosynthetics . They are distinguished by the kind of polymer, the kind of yarn or fiber, the kind of geosynthetic, and the thickness or mass per unit area used in the fabrication. Geotextiles are one type of

minimum of 3 ft in all directions. Florida DOT (2010) Place the geosynthetics used for slope stabilization such that its primary direction of tensile strength is perpendicular to the plan face of the slope. Pull the material tight and secure it as necessary to lay flat against the soil prior to fill placement. Place only that amount of geosynthetic material, including facing and drainage material, which will be covered in a single day’s production. Mississippi DOT (2004) Geogrid shall [...] behavior. The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) defines a geosynthetic as a planar product manufactured from a polymeric material used with soil, rock, earth, or other geotechnical-related material as an integral part of a civil engineering project, structure, or system (Berg and Suits, 1999). Geosynthetics are identified by the type of polymer, type of fiber or yarn, type of geosynthetic, mass per unit area or thickness, and any additional clarification needed to describe the [...] should include all labor, materials, tools, shipping, handling, storage, protection, and connecting mechanisms for the geosynthetic material. Portions that are damaged, cut off, or overlapped are not to be paid for. Amount of fill needed should be calculated and added into the price per square yard. 49 SITE EVALUATION As per FHWA recommendations, the existing topography, subsurface conditions, and soil/rock properties must be considered when evaluating a site for repair or new construction.

A GRE is also referred to as a Reinforced Soil Slope. Situations where GRE may be used include: • • • • Limited right of way Shortage of fill quantity for slope construction Excess of excavated materials Distressed or [...] size, (min and max, inch) Calipered 0.8 – 3.0 UV resistance, retained tensile strength, 500 hours, (min, %) ASTM D4355 70 The Standard Specifications table includes three more secondary geosynthetic reinforcement products with higher tensile strength requirements than the two in the above table.
