Abstract
The paper presents successful experiences using geosynthetic reinforced soil structures for slope stabilization and landslide rehabilitation in Myanmar, Indonesia, and Japan. In all the presented cases, reinforced soil structures, combining high strength uniaxial geogrids and metallic gabion units provided with integrated reinforcing tails, were built. The first project highlights the challenges faced in the design and construction of a reinforced soil structure built to rehabilitate the collapsed portion of a national road in Myanmar. The second case study focuses on the application of reinforced soil structures for the reconstruction of road slope failures in Indonesia. The last case study describes the technical solution selected to stabilize a 14 m high slope for the Harima Expressway embankment located in Hyogo prefecture, Japan.
