    Geosynthetics can be used to reinforce highway embankments, allowing the base width B2 of reinforced embankments to be narrower than the conventional width B1. Reinforced embankments are constructed by placing a geotextile and gravel layer, then backfilling and compacting soil in layers. A wrapped-around retaining wall provides external stability, while the geotextile prevents pull-out failures and resists rupture to ensure internal stability.
