Abstract

The paper deals with the problem of bearing capacity of reinforced soil retaining walls. First, some results of small scale experiments are presented and discussed. Then, theoretical analyses of the problem are performed on the basis of a rigid-plastic model of reinforced soil and limit theorems. Fairly good agreement between experimental data and theoretical predictions suggests that the results obtained can be useful in engineering calculations and design of geotextile reinforced retaining walls. Numerical examples of practical importance are also shown.
