Kalimantan is one of the 3 islands in Indonesia which has the largest peatlands. Moreover, in 2019 the President of the Republic of Indonesia Ir. H. Joko Widodo inaugurated the move of Indonesia's capital city from DKI Jakarta to East Kalimantan. The development of supporting infrastructure for the Capital City will inevitably occur, so that construction on peatlands cannot be avoided. The characteristics of peatlands as well as the impacts and risks that will occur when working on peatlands need to be considered. In this thesis, we will discuss the types of retaining walls that are most effective when applied to peatlands. Types of retaining walls that will be compared include gravity retaining walls, sheet sheet-type retaining walls, and soldier piles. The analysis will be carried out on the lateral stresses that occur and the collapse in each type of retaining wall. Coulumb soil pressure theory and Rankine soil lateral pressure theory are also used to support this analysis. Theoretically, solid or gap-free retaining walls are likely to be effective when applied to peat soils. This is due to the nature of peat soil which has high water and organic content. The depth of excavation on peat soil is calculated as deep as 9 meters. The deflection that occurs in the diaphragm wall is 0.354 m, the secant pile is 0.751 m, the concrete sheet pile is 1.09 m and the steel sheet pile is 2.73 m. Kalimantan adalah salah satu dari 3 pulau di Indonesia yang memiliki lahan gambut terluas. Terlebih lagi pada tahun 2019 Presiden Republik Indonesia Ir. H. Joko Widodo meresmikan perpindahan Ibukota Indonesia dari DKI Jakarta ke Kalimantan Timur. Pembangunan infrastruktur – infrastruktur pendukung Ibukota pasti akan terjadi, sehingga kontruksi pada lahan gambut tidak akan dapat terhindarkan. Sifat-sifat dari lahan gambut maupun dampak dan resiko yang akan terjadi pada saat melakukan pekerjaan di lahan gambut perlu dipertimbangkan. Pada skripsi ini akan membahas tentang jenis dinding penahan tanah yang paling efektif ketika diaplikasikan ke lahan gambut. Jenis dinding penahan tanah yang akan dibandingkan antara lain dinding penahan gravitasi, dinding penahan tanah tipe turap, dan soldier pile. Analisa akan dilakukan pada tekanan lateral yang terjadi dan keruntuhan pada tiap jenis dinding penahan tanah. Teori tekanan tanah Coulumb dan teori tekanan lateral tanah Rankine dipakai juga untuk mendukung analisis ini. Secara teoritis, dinding penahan tanah yang solid atau yang tidak mempunyai celah yang berkemungkinan akan efektif ketika diaplikasikan pada tanah gambut. Hal ini dikarenakan sifat tanah gambut yang mempunyai kadar air dan organik yang tinggi. Kedalaman galian pada tanah gambut yang diperhitungkan sedalam 9 meter. Defleksi yang terjadi pada diaphragm wall adalah sebesar 0,354 m, pada secant pile sebesar 0,751 m, pada turap beton sebesar 1,09 m dan pada turap baja sebesar 2,73 m.

In an urban environment, it is often necessary to locate structures close to existing retaining walls due to congestion in space. When such structures are in seismically active zones, the dynamic loading attracted by the retaining wall can increase. In a novel approach taken in this paper, finite element-based numerical analyses are presented for the case of a flexible, cantilever sheet pile wall with and without a structure on the backfill side. This enables a direct comparison of the influence exerted by the structure on the dynamic behaviour of the retaining wall. In this paper, the initial static bending moments and horizontal stresses prior to application of any earthquake loading are compared to Coulomb’s theory. The dynamic behaviour of the retaining wall is compared in terms of wall-top accelerations and bending moments for different earthquake loadings. The dynamic structural rotation induced by the differential settlements of the foundations is presented. The accelerations generated in the soil body are considered in three zones, i.e., the free field, the active and the passive zones. The differences caused by the presence of the structure are highlighted. Finally, the distribution of horizontal soil pressures generated by the earthquake loading behind the wall, and in front of the wall is compared to the traditional Mononobe-Okabe type analytical solutions.

Failures of treated slope occurring in China are at a continually increasing rate, and the huge number of treated loess slopes is calling for a postevaluation; however, no mature technique is in place. Based on an actual loess slope in Shaanxi Province treated by retaining wall, indoor geotechnical and model tests were conducted, revealing the rainwater infiltration process and pressure variations behind the wall, and the processes were then adopted to perform the postevaluation of the treated slope. The results proposed that effectual measures hence needed to be taken so as to avert rainwater infiltrating along the wall face and back or flowing through the wall body, which can soften the soil of the slope bottom. Although the wet front was developed by the rainfall process, it cannot be used as the boundary between saturated and unsaturated areas. Despite the peculiarly large soil pressure upon the wall back at the top layer, the soil pressure increases to a large value and then decreases with the depth. The model test results and investigation results were used to conduct the postevaluation of the prototype slope, which formed a postevaluation frame relevant to other slope postevaluations.

Mountainous Regions

The earthquake (Mw 7.3) that struck Nepal on April 25, 2015 caused damage to many civil engineering and architectural structures. While several road gabion retaining walls in mountainous regions incurred damage, there was very little information that could be used to draw up earthquake countermeasures in Nepal, because there have been few construction cases or case studies of gabion structures, nor have there been experimental or analytical studies on their earthquake resistance. Therefore, we conducted a shake table test using a full-scale gabion retaining wall to evaluate earthquake resistance. From the experiments, it was found that although gabion retaining walls display a flexible structure and deform easily due to the soil pressure of the backfill, they are resilient structures that tend to resist collapse. Yet, because retaining walls are assumed to be rigid bodies in the conventional stability computations used to design them, the characteristics of gabions as flexible structures are not taken advantage of. In this study, we propose an approach to designing gabion retaining walls by comparing the active collapse surface estimated by the trial wedge method, and the experiment results obtained from a full-scale model of a vertically-stacked wall, which is a structure employed in Nepal that is vulnerable to earthquake damage. When the base of the estimated slip line was raised for the trial wedge method, its height was found to be in rough agreement with the depth at which the gabion retaining wall deformed drastically in the experiment. Thus, we were able to demonstrate the development of a method for evaluating the seismic stability of gabion retaining walls that takes into consideration their flexibility by adjusting the base of the trial soil wedge.

Wing Walls

Retaining walls are widely used as permanent structures for retaining soils at different levels.Type of the wall depends on the soil pressure, such as active or passive earth pressure and earth pressure at rest and drainage conditions. Types of walls generally used are gravity walls, RCC walls, counterfort walls and buttress retaining walls. Retaining walls behavior depends on the wall height and retention heights of the soil at its backfill. Retaining walls are used with tying with more than one wall at perpendicular joints to retain liquids, water storage and materials storages such as dyke walls and tanks. Retaining walls excessively used in culverts and as well as in the bridges for construction of abutment wing walls supposed to resist soil pressures laterally applied perpendicular to the axis of the walls.Based on the present scenario used in retaining structures within the civil industries there requirements of height of walls are being increased due to lake of land and cost of sub structures being incurred in the project work, higher height of walls develops huge bending moment at the base because of the cantilever action of the walls, thus resulting in higher sections at the base which deploys into a uneconomical zone so different wall systems are required in different arrangements so as to transfer the loads with limited sections. In the present study retaining walls of height 6m, 9m and 12m are considered for study and the length of the walls considered as 30m and the material properties considered are M20 and Fe415 steel bars and the supports considered to be fixed at the base

As the special soil, turfy soil and peat soil in China contained some similar properties with high void ratio, high water content, high organic content, etc. But turfy soil also had properties which difference from peat soil. In this paper, based on the formation of the cause and geological environment and geomorphologic characteristics of geological in the quaternary, took the typical and widespread turfy soil and peat soil regions for example, systematically discussed the material composition and macroscopic and microcosmic structural features, put further research on the physical chemistry mechanical characteristics. Then the come to the conclusion that the essential reason for difference between turfy soil and peat soil were decomposition degree and organic content. The result that worse engineering properties such as higher the moisture content, porosity, compressibility, internal cohesion and the lower specific weight, consolidation coefficient and permeability were due to the lower decomposition degree and higher organic content of turfy soil than peat soil. It can provide reference to the practical projects of turfy soil to distinguish peat soil according to this characteristic.

At this time, the development of retaining structures continues to be optimized according to the available land use, to deal with current and future landslides. The structure of the retaining wall (Turap) is expected to provide a solution for the handling. Based on the type of material used, several types of sheet pile are known, namely; wood sheet pile, concrete sheet pile and steel sheet pile, and based on the type of construction there are two types, namely; cantilever type and anchor type. Sheet pile made of wood, the function of this material is to retain the soil which is not so high. This is because the wood material will not be able to withstand excessive soil or gravel loads. In a handling, knowing the function or planning for handling avalanches is very important, because by knowing the purpose and function of the plan, it can be easier in the design and planning process. Calculations for the quality and efficiency of handling can be achieved as desired. The purpose of this study was to analyze the planning calculation of the dimensions of the temporary wood sheet pile (length of planted wood and thickness) as a soil barrier that was built to prevent landslides caused by the intensity of rain. From the results of the research that has been carried out, the planning of wooden sheet piles with a width of 1 meter and 2 meters as retaining walls and for soil volume ranges from 20 KN/M3-30 KN/M3 while the height of sheet piles is 1 meter - 4 meters. It was found that the length of the sheet pile planted did not affect changes in the volume of the soil while the thickness of the wood did.

The retaining wall is a common slope protection structure. To tackle the current lack of sustainable and highly prefabricated retaining walls, an environmentally friendly prefabricated ecological grid retaining wall with high construction efficiency has been developed. Due to the asymmetrical condition of the project considered in this paper, the designed prefabricated ecological grid retaining wall was divided into the excavation section and the filling section. By utilizing the ABAQUS finite element software, the stress and deformation characteristics of the retaining wall columns, soil, anchor rods, and inclined shelves in an excavation section, and the force and deformation relationships of the columns, rivets, and inclined shelves in three working conditions in a filling section were studied. The study results imply that the anchor rods may affect the columns in the excavation section and the stress at the column back changes in an M-shape with height. Moreover, the peak appears at the contact point between the column and the anchor rod. The displacement of the column increases slowly along with the height, and the column rotates at its bottom. In the excavation section, the stress of the anchor rod undergoes a change at the junction of the structure. The inclined shelf is an open structure and is very different from the retaining plate structure of traditional pile-slab retaining walls. Its stress distribution follows a repeated U-shaped curve, which is inconsistent with the trend of the traditional soil arching effect between piles, which increases first and then decreases. For the retaining wall structure in the filling section, the numerical simulated vehicle load gives essentially consistent results with the effects of the equivalent filling on the concrete column.

Prediction of internal stability for segmental retaining walls reinforced with geogrid and backfilled with residual soil was carried out using statistical methods and artificial neural networks (ANN). Prediction was based on data obtained from 234 segmental retaining wall designs using procedures developed by the National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA). The study showed that prediction made using ANN was generally more accurate to the target compared with statistical methods using mathematical models of linear, pure quadratic, full quadratic and interactions.
