Seismic Analysis of Retaining Walls within Plasticity Framework
Aseismic design of gravity wall still is a more difficult issue. The reason stems from the complexity of the problem which requires skills in soil mechanics, foundation engineering, soil-structure interaction along with knowledge of structure dynamics. Designing seismic gravity retaining structures deals with both kinematic interaction and inertial interaction but almost seismic building code n...
متن کاملDesign Of Retaining Walls : System Uncertainty & Fuzzy Safety Measures
This paper explores some of the aspects of embedded retaining wall design, in particular the interrelationship between system uncertainty and the use of factors of safety in the various design procedures. System uncertainty reflects the mismatch between idealised retaining wall behaviour and what is observed in practice. This feature is modelled using the concept of fuzzy sets where the degree ...
متن کاملFinite Element Analysis of Earth Pressures for Narrow Retaining Walls
High traffic demands have led to widening of existing highways to accommodate increased traffic volume. However, due to the high cost of additional right-of-way and limited space available at job sites, construction of earth retaining walls is often done under a constrained space. This leads to retaining walls that are narrower than in design guidelines. This type of walls is referred as “Narro...
متن کاملDesign of roadside barrier systems for MSE retaining walls
There is confusion among civil engineers in the United States regarding the applicable design method and the appropriate impact load for sizing the moment slab of roadside barrier systems atop MSE retaining walls. The design method and impact load discussed herein have been used successfully for more than 15 years to size the barrier moment slab and to determine the magnitude of loads applied t...
متن کاملAnalysis of Retaining Walls by Numerical Methods - A Literature Review
Present scenario of the engineering practice is indulged in the search of highly developed methods to judge the earth's retaining walls under seismic conditions which are mostly empirical and based on experience rather than the theories. Understanding the nature of earth retaining structures in unstable events caused by natural phenomena is one of the oldest problems in geotechnical engineering...
