Lateral Confinement

Lateral Confinement is a geomechanical stabilization mechanism in which the restraint of soil deformation in the horizontal direction, imposed by the physical interaction between geosynthetic reinforcement and adjacent soil masses, enhances the vertical load-bearing capacity and overall stability of improved ground systems.
