Abstract

The ASIRI+ Project, initiated in April 2019, is presented with a special focus on rolling loads for the application to linear geotechnical infrastructures such as railways and roads. This type of loading needs to be taken into account for understanding and qualifying the efficiency of the load transfer for several geometrical configurations: loads following one-way, two-ways or random direction; load transfer platform reinforced with geosynthetics or not. Laboratory testing and centrifuge modeling devices are used for this research.
