Fattdad, First off, I looked at your profile and saw you and I are both Rams. Small world. When you are refering tothe "reinforced zone" and you including the embankment fill behild the wall straps? Also, the burial depth around teh entire wall does seem like I am using an equation for a...

Do you have any literature on staged construction and how to reccomend a procedure?

I see what you are getting at with not calculating the bearing given the slope stability being met. As far as the burial depth, the face of the wall has a 2ft burial depth, and from the back of the reinforcement, a 1:1 slope is tieing back into the existing ground line (for constructability)...

I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with undercutting under a MSE wall that sits on a very weak clay. The clay's cohesion has been determined by both N-Counts (~0 bpf) and by a CPT test to be 500 PSF. I am using the unit weight as 120 PCF. It is a lean clay, suseptible to...
