Abstract In the last decades, geosynthetics have established their efficacy in enhancing bearing capacity and reducing settlement in various geotechnical applications. Despite these advantages, researchers have identified minimal benefits associated with conventional geosynthetic reinforcement at low deformation levels. Consequently, the concept of geosynthetic prestress has gained recognition as a promising solution, aiming to enhance performance and expand its applicability across all deformation levels. |
