Abstract

Mixing short fibers with soil enables construction of a tough embankment slope presenting a significant resistance against erosion by rainfall. The present paper demonstrates from indoor erosion tests that slopes made of short fiber reinforced soil is excellent in erosion resistance, and such mix is suitable for constructing multi-natural green slopes of embankment.
