Dynamic and Economic Design of Rigid Retaining Wall [PDF]

GeoCongress 2006, 2006
A 2-D model which accounts for the effect of coupled sliding and rocking motion and uses strain dependent soil stiffness and material damping for calculating the response of rigid retaining walls subjected to dynamic loads, was developed earlier. This model was used to study the effect inclination of the wall face in contact with the backfill, on its ...

Performance of a Rigid Retaining Wall with Relief Shelves

Journal of Performance of Constructed Facilities, 2018
AbstractEarth pressure on a retaining wall decides the sectional dimensions of the wall, and there have been several attempts in the literature to reduce the earth pressures on the retaining walls,...

A Strain Dependent Approach for Seismic Stability Assessment of Rigid Retaining Wall

Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2020
A new method is proposed to evaluate the seismic stability of a rigid retaining wall undergoing translation or rotational failure. In the present method, strain-dependent dynamic properties are used to assess the seismic stability of rigid retaining walls against sliding and overturning failure conditions.

Seismic Earth Pressures on Rigid and Flexible Retaining Walls

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2005
While limiting-equilibrium Mononobe‐Okabe type solutions are still widely used in designing rigid gravity and flexible cantilever retaining walls against earthquakes, elasticity-based solutions have been given a new impetus following the analytical work of Veletsos and Younan [23].

Sliding response of rigid retaining walls

, 1999
In this paper a model for the dynamic analysis of retaining walls subjected to seismic excitation is described. The dynamic equilibrium equation is integrated in time domain for the analysis of the sliding response of rigid retaining walls. Since the soil-wall system changes its configuration during motion due to the displacement of the soil wedge ...

Transition of Earth Pressure on Rigid Retaining Walls Subjected to Surcharge Loading

International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 2012
AbstractRetaining walls are an integral part of various infrastructural projects and are used to support deep excavations, or steep embankments, and deep basements. The earth pressure on these walls plays a crucial role in deciding the cross-sectional dimensions of the wall.

Force and Compression Analysis for Rigid Retaining Walls with EPS Buffer

Advanced Materials Research, 2011
In this paper, the force against rigid retaining walls from backfill soil under static loads and vibration loads is analyzed within three cases. The first case is an ordinary retaining wall without expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam buffer. In the second and the third case, a layer of vertical EPS buffer with different density and elastic modulus is ...

Displacement-based seismic analysis of rigid retaining walls

, 2007
Current pseudo-static analysis of rigid retaining walls requires the selection of an equivalent seismic coefficient keq synthetically representing the effects of the transient seismic actions on the wall-soil system. In the paper a rational approach for the selection of keq is proposed introducing an equivalence between the pseudostatic analysis and ...

Earth Pressures against Rigid Retaining Walls

Journal of the Geotechnical Engineering Division, 1982
This paper outlines the results of unique shaking table experiments to determine neutral and active static and dynamic stresses and the points of application of corresponding total thrust generated by granular soils against rigid retaining walls and compares the experimental data with the well-known Coulomb and Mononobe-Okabe equations. A new criterion
