Abstract
Laboratory large scale model tests for optimizing the geometrical conditions of geotextile in reinforced standard dry sand 161 (patterned in Iran) were carried out. Based on the results of the model tests, the number of reinforcement layers, critical depth of reinforcement and the dimensions of the geotextile layers for mobilizing the maximum bearing capacity were determined and the results were compared with the Plate Load Tests (ASTM-D1194). The total number of tests in this study was 45. The models dimensions were with 100 cm x 100 cm x 80 cm (length x width x depth) and the circular foundation had a diameter of 200 mm.
