Reinforced Earth Presentation Webinar 25.06.2020

A bit of history
• Invented by Henri Vidal, Engineer and Architect (1924-2007)
• On a beach in Ibiza 1957 while building castles of sand
• Filed for a patent on March 27, 1963
• MSE is recognized as a major civil engineering innovation

Reinforced Earth Presentation Webinar 25.06.2020

A bit of history
It is the friction between the inclusions (reinforcing strips) and the
granular backfill which gives the MSE structure its stability

Reinforced Earth Presentation Webinar 25.06.2020

Benefits - Structural
The relatively rigid R.C.Retaining Wall imposes much Higher
Bearing Pressure on ground.
In some cases, e.g. sloping ground, it require Piles for support.
Reinforced Earth Walls have been proved to be a economical
solution by eliminating the need of piled foundation.

33
Reinforced Earth Presentation Webinar 25.06.2020

Benefits - Resilience

Effective absorption of
dynamic loads from :

 Earthquakes
 High speed and heavy trains
 Industrial and mining
equipment
 Avalanches, rock falls,
landslides, waves..
 Explosions
