Análise da estabilização de taludes com a utilização de geogrelhas

Abstract

The increase on the demand for road works and constructions that involve slope stabilization, and the occurrence of frequent cases of soil mass destabilization has aroused interest in the study of new solutions that escape traditional and usual methods. Thus, it is necessary the study and analysis that approach this topic, endowed with the existing bibliography and studies under development about the use of new techniques and solutions, the present work aims to contribute with the described. For that, the functions and applications of the geosynthetics were studied and the stability of a slope was analyzed by traditional methods and with the use of reinforcement in soils with geogrid, showing its benefits and limitations as a solution for stabilization. In this context, a comparative study was performed with other methods to analyze the financial viability. The results were satisfactory for both slope safety and construction cost, showing the competitiveness of this method.
