This project was intended to demonstrate the effectiveness of geogrid in reducing cost, providing longer service life, and reducing long-term maintenance of the pavement system.Posted: Feb 14 Differential settlement in the transition zone between the bridge structure and the approach embankment often creates a "bump" which is a potential safety hazard and comfort issue for drivers. This research focuses on identifying innovative means to mitigate this issue during design and construction.Posted: Feb 12 Wesley E. Marshall, Nick Ferenchak, and Bruce Janson
