According to a highway expansion project, this paper makes field obversations on earth pressrue of double-sided reinforcement retaining walls and studies distribution of it. Test results show earth pressure on the back of double-sided reinforcement retaining walls grows with increase of filling height during construction and the distribution is nonlinear along with height of the wall, the maximum is at the base. Measured values of vertical earth pressure are lower than theoretical ones. And this structure of double-sided reinforcement retaining walls has low requirement on bearing pressure of foundations. The results can be used as a reference for further application in future.

The earth pressure behind inclined wall considering the soil arching effects which was decided by two factors, the coefficient and average vertical stress, was necessary to research. Based on the analysis of stress state behind the retaining wall, the unified solution of active pressure and passive pressure was derived and was used to calculate both the magnitude and point of application. According to examples, as the angle of inclined retaining wall increasing which was signifying by , the arching effects would be also increasing which the soil was in the passive limit and be falling which the soil was in the active limit.

The retaining walls are one of the most widespread types of engineering structures. Behaviour numerous studies of various soils with soaking have showed that their bearing capacity and compliance are closely related to their moisture content degree. To obtain information on the displacements and sediments of model structures and grounds, the hour-type indicators are used. The carried out researches have shown that with the same ground base, loading and boundary conditions, evident for a retaining wall with a structural surface, there is an inclusion in entire soil massif work. The uniformity of the structures and the ground base general deformations, in turn, provides retaining wall with a structural surface greater stability.

Abstract: the paper introduces the advantages and disadvantages of the honeycomb core composite wallboard, and put forward various solutions on the problems that the honeycomb core composite wallboard on juncture place easily crack. According to the advantages and disadvantages, the optimal measures are to use CFRP paste connection joints. Tested by experiments, the results show that: for using cellular wall materials as new buildings retaining wall materials, CFRP enhancement processing juncture surface can effectively restrain cracks, and the results are ideal; for existing buildings retaining wall, gives suggestions about enhancement processing, and proves its feasibility.

This paper reviews the evidence for a secondary transfer effect of intergroup contact. Following a contact’s typical primary reduction in prejudice toward the outgroup involved in the contact, this effect involves a further, secondary reduction in prejudice toward noninvolved outgroups. Employing longitudinal German probability samples, we found that significant secondary transfer effects of intergroup contact exist, but they were limited to specific outgroups that are similar to the contacted outgroup in perceived stereotypes, status or stigma. Since the contact-prejudice link is bidirectional, the effect is inflated when prior prejudice reducing contact is not controlled. The strongest evidence derives from experimental research. Both cognitive (dissonance) and affective (evaluative conditioning) explanations for the effect are offered.
