In-plane shear behaviour of earthen materials panels strengthened with polyester fabric strips
(2016)
An experimental investigation was carried out to study the in-plane shear behaviour of earthen material Panels strengthened with polyester fabric strips. Strengthened panels were developed to exploit the strength potential of earthen materials and to solve its lack of tensile strength, significantly improving not only strength but also ductility. Three earthen materials were considered: cob, earth block masonry (EBM) and rammed earth (RE). As first approach the strengthening configuration, based on different adhesive materials, was tested only for cob panels. As part of the study the results of a big testing campaign of unstrengthened Panels were considered. Seven strengthened panels were tested in diagonal compression/shear.A unique reinforcement orientation was used. The results of these tests are presented in this paper, and include the load-displacement behaviours, crack patterns, failure modes. The results showed that the reinforcement was the most effective in EBM panels, with increase in strength and ductility observed. In RE and cob panels the reinforcement did not likely contribute significantly to the shear resistance, due to a lack of embedment length of the strips. Instead, in EBM it was likely that the vertical reinforcement acted in tension to restrain shear induced dilation and to restrain sliding.

Kunststoff-Dränelemente werden auch in Böschungen eingebaut. Da sie in der Regel aus mehreren Komponenten, nämlich mindestens aus einem Dränkern und einem Filtervliesstoff bestehen, hängt die Standsicherheit u. a. von der inneren Scherfestigkeit der Produkte ab. Diese kann entweder durch die reine Reibung der Komponenten untereinander oder durch die mechanische Festigkeit von Fügestellen zwischen den Komponenten bedingt sein, die schon bei der Produktion hergestellt werden. Im letzteren Fall ist nicht klar, wie Ergebnisse von Reibungsversuchen im Rahmenschergerät zu interpretieren sind. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird gezeigt, wie die Druck- und Scherkräfte, die ein Produkt langfristig aushalten kann, aus einem Reibungsversuch im Zusammenhang mit Kriechversuchen abgeleitet werden können. Dieses Vorgehen wird bei der Zulassung nach der Deponieverordnung für den Einsatz in Deponieabdichtungen angewendet.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Geocomposite drains (GCD) are used on long and steep slopes. Since they are usually composed of different components, at least a drain core in connection with a nonwoven filter geotextile, the internal shear strength is of significant relevance for the slope stability. The internal shear strength may be due to pure friction forces between the different components or due to the mechanical strength of the bonding between the components achieved in a special production process. In the latter case the interpretation of the results of friction shear box tests is quite unclear. Against this background it is shown how the pressure and shear forces, which are acceptable for a product in the long run, may be derived from such a shear box test in combination with long-term creep tests. The procedure is used within the framework of the certification of the products for landfill cover systems according to the German landfill ordinance.
