ABSTRACT:
A retaining wall construction includes a lower mechanically stabilized earth bulk form with tensile members projecting from the front face of the bulk forms and connected to precast wall panels that are spaced from the front face of the bulk form. The space between the front face of the bulk form and the panels is filled with concrete. Positioned on top of the reinforced concrete and the first bulk form, as well as along the sides thereof, are additional bulk forms which include tensile members connected directly to the front facing panels.
