Analysis of Engineering Application about Reinforced Earth Retaining Wall

Abstract:

Geogrids reinforced soil retaining walls are widely used in various fields, such as highway, railway, architectural engineering, hydraulic engineering and so on because of its remarkable economical benefits, constructing convenience, adaption to the foundation simplicity of foundation treatment good vibration resistance shapely configuration and environmental pollution-free etc. Combined with a real engineering, the applied effects of geogrids reinforced earth retaining was tested. Based on the field test results and finite element method numerical analysis, the engineering characteristics of blocking reinforced earth retaining wall that used lime soil as filled material in construction period and after completion were opened out. The distributing characteristics and rules of wall back lateral soil pressure, tensile bar pull were put forward. Thus, technical references were provided for the similar structures.
