Abstract
Laboratory model tests to determine the permanent settlement of a surf ace strip foundation supported by geogrid-reinforced saturated clay an d subjected to a low-frequency cyclic load are presented. In conductin g the tests, the foundation was initially subjected to an allowable st atic load. The cyclic load was then super-imposed over the static load . The variation of the maximum permanent settlement with the intensity of the static load and the intensity of the amplitude of the cyclic l oad are also presented.
