Study on Soil Pressure of High Fill Retaining Wall in Construction Stage

Abstract:

The traditional formula using for the calculation of Expressway on high embankment of the retaining wall and the earth pressure can not be very good practical. In order to accurately determine the soil pressure calculation of the complex retaining wall in construction stage for guaranteeing the engineering safety, the experiment study on soil pressure is done, and the study on soil pressure monitoring data is also done. Then the valuable conclusions are obtained to facilitate better practical guidance for construction.
