Abstract
In this paper, the influencing factors for the decision of the embankment construction method utilizing geotextile tube were studied by analyzing the application and economic considerations based on the construction practices of the geotextile tube filled with dredged soil in the domestic and international. In the domestic case, cost savings of 40 to 50% is attained by applying geotextile tubes in the embankment construction and in the international case, the amount of quarry materials was reduced from 20 to 70% by replacing the core of the embankment with geotextile tube. As a result, utilization of geotextile tube filled with dredged soil should be considered in a very large construction site with a quarry-to-site delivery distance of more than 16~25km. The construction scale and delivery distance were found to be important influencing factors for the decision of the embankment construction method utilizing geotextile tube filled with dredged soil.
