Abstract: A numerical finite-difference method (FLAC) model was used to investigate the influence of constitutive soil model on predicted response of two full-scale reinforced soil walls during construction and surcharge loading. ...

Abstract: The paper reports the results of load and resistance factor design (LRFD) calibration for pullout and yield limit states for steel strip reinforced soil walls under self-weight loading. An important feature of the calibration ...

Abstract: The results of load and resistance factor design (LRFD) calibration are reported for the pullout limit state in geogrid reinforced soil walls under self-weight loading and permanent uniform surcharge. Bias statistics are ...
