Popis: Earth pressure is the main factor for retaining walls stability. To study the distribution regulation of earth pressure in geogrid-reinforced retaining wall, in-situ test has been carried out on an experimental wall and analyzed by finite element method. The numerical result fits well with the test data that prove the reliability, the paper analyze the influence for earth pressure distribution caused by factors of geogrid as: stiffness; length; spacing, and the weight density of filling material.
