ABSTRACT:
A retaining wall, preferably for marine use, constructed of a plurality of corrugated panels. The corrugated panels of the wall are anchored in the earth behind the wall by a plurality of vertically spaced, horizontally extending lengths of sections of geogrid material. Geogrid sections are secured to the wall made up of a plurality of corrugated panels by walers secured to the wall. One waler is positioned on an exterior surface of the wall. An upper interior waler section and a lower interior waler section are positioned on an interior surface of the wall. In the lowermost surface of the upper interior waler section and the uppermost surface of the lower interior waler section is a grooved recess. A comb connector made of a central spine and upwardly and downwardly projecting fingers interconnects the upper and the lower interior waler sections by extending downwardly into the groove of the lower interior waler section and upwardly into the groove of the upper interior waler section. The longitudinally extending strands of the geogrid sections, whether of biaxial or uniaxial construction, are held in place between the upper and lower interior waler sections, between the downwardly extending teeth and the spine of the comb.
