... failure can occur if the anchorage length of the reinforcement is insufficient. The soil-reinforcement interaction in MSE walls varies depending on the type of soil, geometry and properties of the reinforcement. Moreover, the interaction between the soil and the reinforcement can be complex according...

... conditions for the anchor section. Additional terms for the soil-reinforcement interaction, which incorporate the anchor section, are also introduced. A new concept of an anchorage factor (anchor-to-strip reinforcement capacities), the relative stiffness, and the displacement parameters are defined...

...M.C. Alfaro; S. Hayashi; N. Miura; K. Watanabe Soil-reinforcement interaction parameters used in the design of reinforced soil systems are typically evaluated by measuring pullout resistance. A combined two-dimensional and three-dimensional interaction mechanism is proposed to evaluate the pullout...
