Reinforced Earth Wall
Introduction
RE wall may be defined as a composite earth structure, wherein soil (or other suitable fill) is internally stabilized by the inclusion of discrete layers of CTM Geogrids which are generally placed in the plane perpendicular to wall facing, between successive lifts of fill, during construction. RE Wall system is a flexible structure as compared to R.C.C rigid structure and is more stable under large and unforeseen deformations due to earthquake, differential settlements and subsidence.
The important components of reinforced soil walls include
– soil reinforcement
– facing
– connection between facing and soil reinforcement
– reinforced fill, drainage media, leveling pad, coping etc.
– facing
– connection between facing and soil reinforcement
– reinforced fill, drainage media, leveling pad, coping etc.
Careful attention to selection of the appropriate materials, design and construction ensures an optimal solution with desired performance.
