(8) After the subgrade is filled, promptly carry out slope trimming and install dry-stacked stone protection at the toe of the slope. In addition to widening each side by 0.3 meters, this section of subgrade also includes a reserved 1.5% settlement allowance. It is produced by extruding, sheeting, and punching a polymer-based material, which is then further processed longitudinally and laterally. This material exhibits exceptional strength both in the longitudinal and transverse directions. Such a structural design not only provides an ideal interlocking system for efficiently distributing and transferring loads through soil but also makes it perfectly suited for reinforcing large-area, long-term load-bearing foundations.

4. (8) After the subgrade is filled, promptly carry out slope trimming and install dry-stacked stone protection at the toe of the slope. In addition to widening each side by 0.3 meters, this section of subgrade also includes a reserved 1.5% settlement allowance. Construction:

(1) First, accurately mark the embankment slope lines. To ensure the required embankment width, add an extra 0.5 meters on each side. After leveling the dried-out subgrade soil, compact it twice using a 25-ton vibratory roller in static mode, followed by four passes of compaction with a 50-ton vibratory roller. Any uneven areas should then be manually leveled to achieve a smooth finish.

(2) Lay a 0.3-meter-thick layer of medium (coarse) sand, then manually and mechanically level it thoroughly. Afterward, compact the surface twice using a 25-ton vibratory roller in static mode.

(3) Lay the geogrids, ensuring that the bottom surface remains smooth and densely compacted during installation. Generally, the geogrids should be laid flat, stretched taut, and must not overlap, curl, or twist. The adjacent sheets of geogrid should be lapped by 0.2 meters, with 8-gauge wire threaded through every 1 meter along the transverse direction of the subgrade at the overlapping sections. Additionally, secure the laid geogrids to the ground at intervals of 1.5 to 2 meters using U-shaped nails.

(4) After the first layer of geogrid is laid, proceed to backfill with a 0.2-meter-thick layer of medium (or coarse) sand. The method is as follows: Transport the sand to the site by truck and dump it along one side of the subgrade. Then, use a bulldozer to push the sand forward, first compacting the area within 2 meters on either side of the subgrade to a depth of 0.1 meter. Next, fold up the edges of the previously laid geogrid, add another 0.1-meter layer of medium (or coarse) sand, and carefully avoid filling or pushing the material inward from the sides. Additionally, no machinery should operate over the geogrid before it’s fully covered with medium (or coarse) sand. This ensures the geogrid remains flat, without bulging or wrinkling. Once the second layer of medium (or coarse) sand is evenly spread, perform a precise horizontal survey to prevent uneven compaction. Finally, after confirming the elevation is accurate, roll the surface twice using a 25-ton vibratory roller in static mode.

(5) The construction method for the second layer of geogrid is identical to that of the first layer. Finally, backfill 0.3 meters of medium (or coarse) sand using the same method as the first layer. After two passes of static compaction with a 25-ton roller, the subgrade reinforcement process will be fully completed.

(6) After the coarse sand has been properly compacted on Yi’s third layer, lay two layers of geogrids along the longitudinal direction of the slope, one on each side. Ensure an overlap of 0.16 meters and securely join them using the same method. Then, proceed with earthwork operations, installing the geogrids for slope protection. Importantly, measure the exact placement lines for each layer, ensuring that after slope trimming, the geogrid is embedded at least 0.10 meters into the slope on both sides.

(7) For each two layers of soil compacted—equivalent to a thickness of 0.8 meters—a layer of geogrid must be simultaneously placed on both sides of the slope. This process is repeated until the geogrid reaches just below the shoulder surface.

(8) After the subgrade is filled, promptly carry out slope trimming and install dry-stacked stone protection at the toe of the slope. In addition to widening each side by 0.3 meters, this section of subgrade also includes a预留 1.5% settlement allowance.
