Active Earth Pressure of Narrow Cohesionless Backfill on Inclined Rigid Retaining Walls Rotating about the Bottom
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In engineering constructions, the backfill behind retaining walls is usually narrow, and its boundary conditions are asymmetric due to the space limitation. When the retaining wall rotates about the bottom, the direction ...
Active Earth Pressure of Narrow Backfill on Inverted T-Type Retaining Walls under Translation Mode
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: It is well known that there are multiple sliding surfaces behind inverted T-type retaining walls and that reflective sliding surfaces may develop in narrow backfill. Combined with numerical analysis, this paper establishes ...
Slip-Line Solution to Earth Pressure of Narrow Backfill against Retaining Walls on Yielding Foundations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: When a retaining wall is adjacent to a natural slope, the overturning of the wall is usually caused by a yielding foundation. At the point of overturning, the narrow backfill behind the wall has reached the active limit ...
Active Earth Pressure against Inverted T-Type Retaining Walls under Translation Mode
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Inverted T-type retaining walls are widely used in civil engineering. Classic earth pressure theories cannot accurately predict the failure mechanism of soils behind inverted T-type retaining walls. Under wall translation ...
