Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) Retaining Wall Employing Reinforcement Rods
Disclosed are embodiments of a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) retaining wall that employs one or more reinforcement rods, such as rebar, and that can be produced with inexpensive, widely available parts. A concrete panel is provided. A steel embed is provided with an embed loop and with first and second outwardly extending stems having aligned embed apertures. The loop is secured within the concrete panel. A steel reinforcement rod is provided with a generally cylindrical elongated body with first and second ends. The first end resides within backfill soil, and the second end has a rod loop, preferably created by reshaping the end of the reinforcement rod. A steel fastener extends through the embed apertures and the rod loop to thereby secure together the reinforcement rod and the embed.
