Abstract

The importance of long-term performance of reinforced earth structures has been gaining its attention as the use of reinforced earth structures as load supporting structures is increasing. When using reinforced earth structures as loading supporting structures the stability as well as serviceability requirements must be met. In that respect the time-dependent long term deformation characteristics should be well understood. In this study the applicability of power law-based creep models for modeling of creep deformation of the components of reinforced earth structures are examined.
