Parametric Study of Reinforced Earth Wall Deformations

The paper presents results of an extensive parametric study on deformations and internal forces developing in reinforced soil walls consisting of gabion basket facing units keyed into the backfill of crushed rocks by wire meshes. The parameters studied covered the wall geometry and the mechanical characteristics of wall elements. Deformations and internal forces were obtained by numerical modelling with material parameters determined from field measurements on constructed walls.
