Influence of the Protection Used for Installation Damage in Long Term Durability of Soil Reinforcement Elements
Currently in Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) technologies, there are two main families of reinforcing elements; metallic and polymeric. Depending on the material, the protection of such elements against the potential for damage during installation is critical to the long term performance of the structure. Reduction of available strength during the process of installation is well known to be one of the factors that affect soil reinforcement elements. Depending on the type of reinforcement selected, this factor could account for a large reduction of the available strength for MSE design. Inadequate means for protection against installation damage will have synergistic effects on the durability and long term performance of the reinforcement; these effects being hard to predict but in some cases could potentially accelerate degradation rates causing early failures. This paper explores 40 years of evidence for in service performance of reinforcement materials used in MSE structures and provides a corresponding guide for designers for the correct material selection and specification of reinforcing elements material selection and specification of reinforcement elements.
