Reliability Analysis of MSE Wall, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Toufigh, Vahab (Supervisor)
Abstract
This study investigates the reliability analysis of mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall and takes into account the uncertainty associated in the mechanical properties of soil and geogrid, the magnetude of surcharge load and the soil-geosynthetic interface friction angle. In addition, the effect of number, length and place of the geogrid layers on the performance of this wall has been evaluated. The failure modes related to external stability, internal stability and horizontal displacement of the wall were considerd. In order to determine the probabilistic characteristics and the probability distribution function of soil and soil-geosynthetic interface friction angle, direct shear test...
