Abstract
Theoretical study of Geonet replacement method has been carried out since the twelfth Geosynthetics Symposium in Japan. We have gotten a deformation equation and a tensile stress equation. In this paper, we compared the calculated results by obtained equations and the observed results. These equations can have a good approximation. Furthermore, we tried a parametric study using the tensile stress equation. As a result, it is found that a tensile stress of geonet was influenced seriously by width of geonet and undrained shear strength, otherwise less by density between replaced soil and soft ground.
