Examination of the Design Procedures and Case Studies for Polyester Strip Reinforced MSE Retaining Structures in Non-Standard Soil
MSE retaining structures with polymeric strips reduce project cost and environmental impact compared to traditional methods. High tenacity polyester strips represent an alternative solution to soil reinforcement in MSE walls. A wide range of strips tensile strength, width and LLDPE coating thicknesses allow the optimization of the design and the use of backfill materials such as lime treated soils, untreated ash fills and cohesive soils. This paper presents the design method, tests results and installation considerations related to three case studies of MSE wall projects recently realized in Texas and Florida, with non-standard soil materials.
