  1. Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) Wall Project Geotechnical Design CEG 4801 Fall 2010 Kamal Tawfiq, Ph.D., P.E. Due Date: 9/30/2010

  2. W A reinforced earth retaining wall is to be 20 ft high. The properties of the backfill material are g = 16.6 kN/m3 and f = 30o. Galvanized steel ties are to be used for the construction of the wall. Design the Reinforcements with FS(B) = 3, FS(p) = 3, fy = 2.4x105 kN/m2 and ftie= 20o. The properties of the in-situ soil below the retaining wall are g = 18 kN/m3, f = 30o, and c = 0. Design the panels and the ties of the wall.
