KINEMATICAL LIMIT ANALYSIS APPROACH FOR THE DESIGN OF NAILED SOIL RETAINING STRUCTURES ---PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON THEORY AND PRACTICE OF EARTH REINFORCEMENT, FUKUOKA, KYUSHU, JAPAN, 5-7 OCTOBER 1988
Soil nailing is an in-situ soil reinforcement technique which has been used during the last two decades mainly in France and Germany to retain excavations or stabilize slopes. Design of nailed soil systems has been traditionally done using slope stability analysis methods. These methods have been modified to incorporate the effect of the available tension and shear forces in the passive reinforcements on the slope stability. However, they provide only a global safety factor. This paper presents a limit analysis design approach which provides estimation of maximum tension and shear forces mobilized in each reinforcement. To verify the applicability of the method, the predicted forces are compared with those measured in both laboratory models and full scale structures.(a) for the covering abstract of the symposium see IRRD 818063.
