IMPROVING THE BEARING CAPACITY OF SOILS WITH GEOSYNTHETICS (2007)

Due to the globalization of the world economy and the global increase of trade, there is an increasing shipment of goods, which creates high demands on the maintenance and development of an efficient infrastructure (roads, railways and waterways). The development of infrastructural projects will be a booming sector of the construction industry around the world with the highest demands in Asia and Europe. Sustainability concepts for the construc-tion activities and funding problems of the contracting authorities are current boundary condi-tions which can be accommodated optimally with geosynthetic construction methods. At the same time, besides the technical advantages, economical and ecological advantages can be used too – saving construction costs and taking care of building material resources. This paper will provide a state-of-the-art report about international infrastructural projects.
