Field monitoring study on a highway geogrid-reinforced embankment in Xinjiang, China

Key Points

• Field monitoring demonstrates that geogrid reinforcement enhances embankment stability significantly.
• Data collected over the study period reveals increased load-bearing capacity due to the geogrid intervention.
• Assessment using geotechnical methods confirms the effectiveness of the geogrid in reducing settlement rates.
• Findings suggest that geogrid technology can optimize construction practices for highway embankments.
