How do geogrid reinforced earth walls work? I Geotechnical Engineering I TGC Episode 18

Reinforced (or mechanically-stabilised) soil is becoming a standard way of forming cost-effective walls and bridge abutments on roads and railways, instead of the more traditional options that frequently involve piling and reinforced concrete.

The approach uses layers of geogrid to reinforce soil, increasing bearing capacity and increasing resistance to differential settlement. Reinforced soil structures have lower bearing pressures, which can eliminate the need for expensive foundations.
