Abstract

The deformation and stability of retaining wall are greatly affected by the variation of backfill and the water level of the back wall. In this paper, the deformation and stability of retaining wall with different wall materials are analyzed by finite element simulation analysis. The results show that the horizontal displacement is the biggest when the soil is clay, and the vertical displacement is the largest when the soil is sandy soil, and the horizontal displacement is much larger than that of vertical The safety factor of the retaining wall is influenced by the soil property, and the coefficient of safety of the cohesive soil> the safety coefficient of the silt> the safety coefficient of the sandy soil.
