Abstract

In this study completely different geogrids were use different height of subgrade, so a series of California Bearing ratio (CBR) tests were conducted to evaluate the strength of subgrade soil. Geogrid at a different height of California Bearing Ratio (CBR) mould at 0.2H, 0.4h, 0.6h and 0.8h were used for improving soil strength. Results from the CBR tests established that addition of that material in subgrade soil gives efficient strength to subgrade soil. It was observed that the CBR value increases with increase the height of geogrid and after that decrease the value of CBR. The pavement sections have been designed with the modified subgrade using geogrid.
