Abstract: |
By extending and modifying the method of critical slip field of soil slope, a numerical procedure is proposed for constructing active slip field of soil behind retaining structures, resulting in the distribution of active earth pressures correspondingly. Results of numerical calculation indicate that the present method is of high accuracy, agrees well with available closed\|form solutions, and is capable of dealing readily with the friction between wall and soil, nonhomogeneity of backfills and complex loading conditions. The method deserves application to practical engineering design. |
