This study investigates the effect of soil reinforcement using geonet on the shear strength, consolidation and swelling of silty soil. The tests that carried out are classified into two categories: First; tests on soil without reinforcement and second tests on soil with reinforcement. The loading test was conducted on small scale model using different layers of reinforcement. The results showed that the shear strength parameters could be improved by using geonet reinforcement. Moreover, the settlement and swelling of silty soils are decreased by using geonet.
