Many levees are constructed of clay soils which have a tendency to shrink and swell when subjected to periods of drying and wetting. Desiccation cracking occurs allowing percolation of rain water which may result in shallow surface slides. The purpose of this research was to assess the feasibility of using randomly distributed short polypropylene fibers to reduce the development of desiccation cracks in clay. Tests were conducted on laboratory prepared clays with a wide range of plasticity indices as well as natural clay samples. The fibers were effective in reducing the amount of desiccation cracking that occurs in clay samples. The fibers were effective in reducing the amount of desiccation cracking that occurs in clays subjected to drying. However, when subjected to wet/dry cycles, the fibers were not effective. The fibers increased the tensile strength of the clay and provided a ductile behavior that was not present in the samples without fibers. The fibers has no effect in reducing clay surface disintegration due to erosion. Limited testing with a grid-like fiber, with a bearing capacity failure in pullout as opposed to adhesion for the poly propylene fiber, indicated a modified fiber design could better interact with clays.

Bringing together basic ideas, classical theories, recent experimental and theoretical aspects, this book explains desiccation cracks from simple, easily-comprehensible cases to more complex, applied situations. The ideal team of authors, combining experimental and theoretical backgrounds, and with experience in both physical and earth sciences, discuss how the study of cracks can lead to the design of crack-resistant materials, as well as how cracks can be grown to generate patterned surfaces at the nano- and micro-scales. Important research and recent developments on tailoring desiccation cracks by different methods are covered, supported by straightforward, yet deep theoretical models. Intended for a broad readership spanning physics, materials science, and engineering to the geosciences, the book also includes additional reading especially for students engaged in pattern formation research.
