Classification of reinforced soil structures based on their possible failure mode
Abstract
Proposed is a kind of a general classification of reinforced soil retaining walls, to take into account their internal structure and most probable failure mode. Such classification, however imperfect, makes more clear the problems arising when attempts are made to describe reinforced soil walls theoretically.
