Following are the detailed components of a geosynthetic reinforced soil wall system: • Foundation - Stable soil or bedrock upon which the slope is constructed. Stability in the foundation is assumed. • Retained/Backfill Soil - The soil which remains in place beyond the limits of the excavation or is placed behind the [...] bedrock upon which the slope is constructed. Stability in the foundation is assumed. • Retained Soil - The soil which remains in place beyond the limits of the excavation. • Subsurface Drainage - Geosynthetic drainage medium installed at the limits of the reinforced soil zone to control and collect ground water seepage. • Reinforced Soil - The soil which is placed in lifts adjacent to the retained soil and incorporates horizontal layers of reinforcing to create the sloped structure. • [...] sloped structure. • Reinforcement - Geosynthetic, either geogrid or geotextile with sufficient strength and soil compatible modulus, placed horizontally within the slope to provide tensile forces to resist instability. • Surface Protection - The erosion resistant covering of the finished slope surface.

can be combined of various materials to provide specific functions. Geonets for example, combined with nonwovens, are used in drainage systems. Introduction Erosion control encompasses a large area that includes permanent and temporary systems. Permanent systems can include soil stabilization, riprap and hard armor systems, and scour protection. Temporary systems include soil stabilization with geotextiles, chemical treatment, hay bales, and silt fences. This paper will deal with both permanent [...] with both permanent and temporary systems, but only as they relate to soil stabilization on slopes. During and after pavement construction, shoulder slopes and embankments are often free of protective cover. This exposed soil is vulnerable to erosion damage due to runoff from rainfall. Runoff results in sediment transport causing possible environmental damage to adjacent streams and lakes as well as added cost to the project due to the erosion. Conventional methods to control erosion have GRASS [...] to form a grid configuration. The primary function of geogrids are for reinforcement although they are useful for separation as well. Geonets and geomats are flexible geosynthetics that are constructed with large openings like fencing or netting. They are useful in providing drainage of aggregate systems in the case of geonets and in erosion control in the case of geomats. Geomats and nets can also be made into honeycomb structures useful for stabilizing slopes. Geocomposites can be combined of
