“A Study on Behavior of MSE wall under Different Earthquake Conditions”

Abstract

Now a day’s construction of seismic resistant building is the utmost step taken in the construction field. Therefore the construction of MSE walls also needs this technique where these walls are necessary in the high risk earthquake zones. The reinforcement technique is older one and now it has evolved from use of small metal strips to the use of larger stirrups and also the modern geo-synthetic materials such as Georgics and geo textile. In present work, a MSE wall of 44 m high was designed and analyzed using finite element tool. Plaxis, 2D FEM based computational tool, used for simulation of the MSE wall and for studying its deformations and stability under seismic conditions. The failure modes of MSE walls are studied under different dynamic conditions. Influence of seismicity on MSE forces, horizontal displacements and vertical displacements also studied under different seismic conditions. Also we will compare the influence of earthquake intensity on MSE wall for different tiers. The three earthquake intensities are produced using accelograms of ISGS and observed the effect of earthquake on different tier of MSE wall.
