Design of mechanically stabilized earth wall-reinforced earth wall

Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) Walls are internally stabilized fill walls that are constructed using alternating layers of compacted soil and reinforcement such as geotextiles, metallic strips or rods of metal. Among the types of MSE Wall, Reinforced Earth (RE) Wall is commonly used in the cons...
