A retaining wall is a structure designed and constructed to resist the lateral pressure of soil when there is a desired change in ground elevation that exceeds the angle of repose of the soil. Many types of retaining walls that have various advantages are used, but retaining walls should be developed for stability and economy.
The paper proposes the efficient installation method of reinforcement reinforced retaining wall. Optimal height and optimal length of reinforcement is determined by laboratory model test. Optimal height of reinforcement is point of application of total force on the retaining wall. Optimal length of reinforcement is 500/700(reinforcement length / height of retaining wall). Effect of fixing reinforcement to the retaining wall is increased by increasing lateral displacements.
