Shake table tests for caisson-type quay walls retrofitted by geogrids
The seismic performance of the new seismic retrofit method for caisson-type quay walls was experimentally investigated. The major findings of the shake table tests can be concluded as follows. First, a practical usage of geogrid for quay wall is confirmed by a construction of small model. The combination of treated sludge and geogrid enables the practical construction of geosynthetics in marine environment. Second, the proposed method can retrofit existing quay wall, and the residual deformation or the quay wall can be reduced as less than 1/3 of unreinforced walls. Third, the effect of the retrofit is based on the reduction of rocking behaviors of the wall, and it is consistent with the measured rocking angle and strain distribution of the walls.
