Abstract:     
 
Zur Verbesserung des mechanischen Verhaltens von ungebundenen Tragschichten werden Geokunststoffe eingesetzt, die u. a. eine Bewehrungsfunktion übernehmen. Weisen die eingesetzten Geogitter eine geeignete Materialcharakteristik auf, findet die Bewehrung bereits bei sehr kleinen Verformungen statt. Zur sprachlich-technischen Differenzierung dieses Gebrauchszustandes wird der Stabilisierungseffekt als Teilmenge der Bewehrungsfunktion verstanden. Die Ausschreibung und Vergabe von Produkten und Maßnahmen kann und sollte auf Basis der bestehenden Regelwerke und CE-Kennzeichnungen für Bewehrungsprodukte mit geringfügigen Ergänzungen für kleine Verformungen erfolgen. Im Gegensatz zu Bindemittelverbesserungen wird die Wasserdurchlässigkeit nicht beeinflusst und die bewehrten Tragschichten verhalten sich ausgesprochen duktil.

Stabilization of unbound granular layers in road constructions - defining a benchmark.
To improve the mechanical performance of unbound granular layers in road constructions, geosynthetics are used for the function of, amongst others, reinforcement by geogrids. As far as the geogrids are characterized by a suitable mechanical specification, the granular layers are reinforced even at very low deformations. For verbal and technical clarification the stabilization effect is understood as part of the reinforcement function. Tenders, bids, acceptances and contracts for products shall be worked out based on technical regulations and CE-marking documents for reinforcing products with slight additions, taking low strain and serviceability limit states into consideration. In opposite to layers mixed with binders, the water permeability is not influenced by this measure, and geogrid reinforced layers can be characterized by extraordinary ductility.
