“…Various research methods have been applied in the study of reinforced-soil walls and slopes in recent years, including studies of full-scale structures (Collin, 2001;Kazimierowicz-Frankowska, 2005;Lee and Wu, 2004;Yoo, 2004;Yoo and Jung, 2004;Won and Kim, 2007), reduced-scale models (Latha and Krishna, 2008;ElEmam and Bathurst, 2007;Nova-Roessig and Sitar, 1999;Chen et al, 2007) and numerical analysis (Al-Hattamleh and Muhunthan, 2006;Rowe and Skinner, 2001;Skinner and Rowe, 2005;Hatami and Bathurst, 2000;. Additionally, analytical models such as the homogenized analytical concept (Chen et al, 2000), limit analysis (Porbaha et al, 2000), limit equilibrium (Baker and Klein, 2004a,b;Nouri et al, 2006Nouri et al, , 2008Shekarian et al, 2008;Reddy et al, 2008) and the characteristics method (Jahanandish and Keshavarz, 2005) have been developed.…”

“…Geosynthetics is widely used as reinforcement material in the engineering practice of modern reinforced soil structure, because of the low cost, light weight and convenient construction [1][2][3]. The role of geosynthetics in the reinforcement is that geosynthetics and soil together constitute a complex, so both strength and the deformation properties of the complex can be improved than before.…”

Abstract-Reinforced earth retaining wall is a kind of retaining wall which can bear lateral pressure of soil, which is made up of fill, stressed geosynthetics and retaining blocks. It can enhance the strength and stability of soil with the interaction between the reinforced material and the soil by arranging the tensile material, especially geogrid, in the tensile deformation region of the soil. In the researches on reinforced soil retaining wall, scaled model tests are more effective than any other methods Domestic and foreign scholars have done some valuable researches, but the reinforcement spacing effects of the retaining wall were still not fully resolved currently in academic sector. In this paper, different reinforcement spacing walls were made and monitored, and some research analysis have been done on the deformation characteristics of reinforced retaining wall with different reinforcement spacing. The results show that the settlement on the top as well as the lateral displacement on the front surface of the reinforced retaining wall increased with the increase of the reinforcement spacing.

However, scarcity of space and high height requirements in urban areas made researchers consistently to introduce new kinds of reinforcing materials with different shapes and sizes along with better external and internal design strategies for reinforced soil structures.…”
