Abstract

This lecture examines the progress made in the last few decades concerning the use of geosynthetics for aiding in the construction on soft soils. Consideration is given to different soft soils ranging from peat to rate-sensitive soft clay and silt. Both relatively elastic and rate-sensitive reinforcements are examined. Consideration is given to basal reinforcement, prefabricated vertical drains, and embankments with reinforcement and other supports such as piles. Particular emphasis is placed on advances since the senior author’s 2002 Giroud lecture.
