What is Surcharge Load Impact on Retaining Walls about?

The study investigates the effect of surcharge load on earth pressure against retaining walls reinforced with geosynthetics, specifically geogrids and tire chips. Experimental results indicate that reinforced backfill significantly reduces lateral earth pressure compared to unreinforced backfill, especially when the surcharge load is positioned closer to the wall. The findings suggest that the position of the surcharge load plays a crucial role in influencing earth pressure distribution.
