the sizing methods according to European and American standards.

with the study
of seismic stability of this type of reinforcement.

A
parametric study is performed according to the
parameters that govern the behavior of this type.
Knowing that this type of work is composi

results of a
parametric analysis are also presented.
In order to show the importance of the use of
fibers
for soil i
mprovement, a study of the
behavior
of this type of work is carried out using
fiber

reinforced soils. The results are presented in Chapter
6.
Chapter 6 summarizes the main results of a comparative study of the different analytical and
numerical modelling a
