GEO5 MSE Wall

This program is used for verification of mechanically stabilized earth walls and segmental retaining walls reinforced by geogrids (georeinforcements). The main features of GEO5 MSE Wall program are:

• Built-in database of available georeinforcement (geogrids) – Fortrac, Tensar, Miragrid, KB-grid, Acegrid, Secugrid, Enkagrid, Paralink, Paragrid etc.
• Verification analysis can be performed employing EN 1997-1, LRFD or classical approach (limit states, factor of safety)
• Verification of fictitious wall against slip and overturning
• Verification of slip and overturning of arbitrary part of the wall (dimensioning)
• Verification of bearing capacity of foundation soil
• Verification of slip on georeinforcement
• Verification of internal stability
• for extensible reinforcements
• Standard - straight slip surface
• AASHTO – Extensible
• FHWA NHI-10-024
• for inextensible reinforcements
• AASHTO – Inextensible
• JTGD30 - 2004 Highway China Code
• TB 10025 Railway China Code
• BS 8006 - Coherent Gravity Method
• Verification of global stability at circular slip surface (Bishop, Spencer) incl. optimization
• Automatic generation of reinforcement position
• Various kinds of slopes: prefabricated blocks at the front face of the wall, simple slope or slope with berms (including optional cover)
• Generally layered soil environment
• Built-in database of soil parameters
• Multiple construction stages
• Arbitrary number of surcharges applied to structures (strip, trapezoidal, concentrated load)
• Arbitrary number of inserted forces (anchors, safety fences, etc.)
• Earthquake effects (Mononobe-Okabe, Arrango, Chinese standards, NCMA – SRW)
