This paper highlights recent laboratory studies at Emperor Alexander I St. Petersburg State Transport University, using large-scale cylindrical triaxial apparatus, which helped quantify the geogrid performance in railway ballast. The triaxial shear strength tests were conducted on ballast with and without geogrid. Effect of geogrid layers quantity on the ballast stress-strain behaviour were studied. The experimental results indicate that the geogrids have improved ballast bearing capacity up to 25%.
