Mechanically Stabilized Earth with Steel Reinforcement
Keyword(s):
This paper presents the Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) technique as a practical option for earth retaining wall structures. The literature pertaining soil reinforcement methods and their application in MSE walls were intensively reviewed. The present work focused on evaluating the performance of MSE walls with backfill soil reinforced by steel strips. Almolid square overpass bridge in Khartoum, which was constructed in 2015 with MSE walls as lateral support of the overpass ramps, was considered as case study. Based on field observations, the current status of the overpass bridge has proven that the use of MSE walls is successful and beneficial for sustainability of the overpass.
