摘要：For many years, techniques improving weak soils by means of
additional elements incorporated into their structures have been applying in
geotechnical structures (earth structures). An example of such a procedure
is the use of geosynthetics enabling to solve geotechnical problems related
to anti-erosion protection, as well as filtration and draining. In addition to
geosynthetics, randomly distributed fibers are used. Fibers mixed with soil
perform a function similar to the function of the root system of protective
vegetation and enable the creation of flexible and easy to green
construction. During the research, the influence of the type of fibers and
their amount on erosion of slope located in the suburbs of Bielsko-Biala
(Poland) was determined. Soil parameters and fiber properties were
determined before their placement. Research on the physical properties of
the soils and fibers morphological structure and strength was carried out in
accordance with applicable standards. Subsequently, the slope stability was
assessed during many months of exploitation. During the research, 2 m wide
plots were created on the slope, covered with soil mixed with various
amount of fibers. Fibers mixed with soil form a spatial grid retaining soil
particles washed out by streams of surface water flowing down, limit the
negative impact of erosion and increase slope stability. Natural fibers store
excess water in soil, which promotes the development of protective vegetation.
