WORKING STRESS DESIGN METHOD FOR REINFORCED SOIL WALLS. DISCUSSION AND CLOSURE
A discussion of a paper with the aforementioned title by Ehrlich and Mitchell, published in this journal (Volume 120, Number 4, April 1994), is presented. Discusser Neely's comments focus on reinforcement stiffness and compaction stresses in determining the reinforcement tensions. Mr. Neely applauds the authors for providing a rational method for the internal design of reinforced soil walls. Case studies presented by the authors are reviewed by Mr. Neely. Discussion is followed by closure from the authors.
