Determination of loading and displacements of the backfilled retaining wall due to soil-structure interaction
Abstract
When analysis of serviceability state design is required, the real force-balanced loading and appropriate wall displacements should be anticipated due to soil-structure interaction. Computational algorithm for backfilled retaining walls was elaborated assuming earth pressure at rest as the initial and comparative state of loading. Paying attention to some indistinctnesses concerning the coefficient K0 and pressure-at-rest distribution, the case of compaction-induced earth pressure based on the hysteretic stress model of soil (HSM) is considered in detail. Pour déterminer des charges equilibrées statiques et des déplacements correspondants, il faut prendre en considération d’interaction du systérne sol-construction. L’algorithme de calcul presenté dans ce rapport a été élaboré pour les murs de souténement d’un remblai en acceptant la poussée de terre au repos comme l’état comparatif En considération des divergences concernantes le coefficient K0 et la distribution de la poussée au repos, on analyse la pression excitée pendant le compactage du remblai en suivant le modéle de pression-hystéretique de sol.
