STABILITY OF RETAINING WALL U NDER SEISMIC LOAD: A REVIEW

Abstract

It is necessary to check the relevance & suitability of such type of retaining wall in the field, the economy of the wall, selection of suitable method for computation of active earth pressure, number of relief shelves to be used, the amount of r eduction in the section of wall. Therefore, it is necessary to study the theoretical & practical aspects & model studies in this area of field. Under special circumstances where base width of a retaining wall is to be restricted, a relief shelf can be used to reduce base width. Construction of very tall retaining walls with smaller base widths is possible by providing no. of relief shelves to the cantilever wall. In this paper stability of retaining wall is studied for retaining earth and water
