Influence of soil type on soil/geosynthetic interfaces shear strength in direct shear movement

This paper describes an experimental study that was conducted in a large scale direct shear apparatus in order to evaluate the influence of soil type on soil-geosynthetic interfaces shear strength. For the direct shear tests, two soils of different characteristics were used: a dry and poorly graded...
