Abstract
Systems and methods for containing a subsiding solid material. A containment system can include a capsule surrounding a porous volume. The porous volume can contain a porous solid material subject to subsidence oriented within the capsule and supporting the roof of the capsule. The roof of the capsule can include a sloped portion configured to decrease in slope as the solid material subsides. A plurality of geosynthetic layers can be oriented along the sloped portion. The plurality of geosynthetic layers can include at least two adjacent geosynthetic layers that laterally slide with respect to one another during subsidence to reduce shear forces in the sloped roof portion.
