摘要

This paper on segmental retaining walls (SRW's) focused completely on drainage, i.e., on drainage pressures, quantification and design beneath and behind (or within) the reinforced soil zone of the SRW. This is an important consideration because the majority of problems with SRW's (in 16 out of 26 case histories) were brought about by low permeability backfill soils in the reinforced zone. Without proper drainage, hydrostatic and/or seepage pressures can result in forces which can deform or even fail the entire wall system. A design method based on a finite difference code is presented. It results in the determination of the seepage pressures, as well as quantification of the required flow rate for a given set of conditions. When this value is compared to the allowable flow rate for a candidate drainage product, a flow rate factor of safety is obtained. The entire design process is numerically illustrated for ten different geosynthetic drainage materials. The conclusion reached is that if low permeability soils are used for backfill in the reinforced soil zone, drainage beneath and behind the zone must be provided. There are numerous geosynthetic drainage materials that are available, as well as the use of free draining soil materials. Alternatively, geosynthetic drainage can be provided within the reinforced soil zone. All of these drainage systems are readily designable and constructible. While there certainly will be an increase in cost, the increase is not felt to be prohibitive in light of the currently low cost of SRW's. Conversely, the cost of a failure is certainly prohibitive and must be avoided.
