EVALUATION OF THE ISOGRID (REGISTERED TRADEMARK) RETAINING WALL SYSTEM

This report describes an evaluation designed to determine the basic capabilities and limitations of the ISOGRID (Registered Trademark) Retaining Wall System (ISOGRID System), a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) structure developed and designed by The Neel Company. The evaluation was conducted based on material, design, construction, performance, and quality assurance information outlined in the Highway Innovative Technology Evaluation Center (HITEC) Protocol. The ISOGRID System features a diamond-shaped, segmental precast concrete facing panel with weep holes where four panels intersect and welded-wire, grid-type soil reinforcement attached to the center of each facing panel.
