The Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil Integrated Bridge System (GRS-IBS) is a fast, cost-effective method of bridge support with proven performance. This presentation will provide an overview of geosynthetic reinforced soil concepts, particularly for load bearing applications, describe the GRS-IBS, summarize recommended design steps and construction procedures, provide data related to in-service performance of these structures, and outline ongoing GRS research and development at the FHWA. 1.0 PDH
