Abstract
In the geo-cell reinforced soil structures, we can use the various materials as the material into the geo-cells. Mechanical properties of geo-cell reinforced soils change by the kind of filling materials. Therefore, if we want to predict the deformation and strength of them, it is necessary to grasp the relation between the characteristics of the filling materials and the mechanical properties of the geo-cell reinforced soil structures. In this study, at first, we perform the tri-axial compression tests to examine the mechanical properties of the sandy filling materials. In addition, fundamental experiments on the compressibility and the frictional property for the cell structures are performed. Finally, we analyze the relationship between results of these experiments.
