Abstract
Shear tests which conducted in the soil mechanics laboratory to determine the effects of polymer materials (geotextiles) on shear strength of reinforced clay in conduits. It was found that setting geotextile sheets in 60 degrees to the plane of failure increases shear strength to a maximum of 25% than that with an unreinforced clay.
