ABSTRACT:
A retaining wall system comprising a combination of gravity wall and soil reinforcement retaining wall structures. The gravity wall structure comprises a plurality of gravity wall members formed of pre-cast or cast-in-place concrete, each including a face panel and an anchoring member. The anchoring member is disposed in a generally orthogonal relationship relative to the face panel and extends rearwardly into the soil mass behind the retaining wall. The soil reinforcement members are comprised of face panels and soil reinforcement elements extending rearwardly therefrom into the soil mass for the securement of the face panels. The soil reinforcement members are further adapted for positioning the gravity wall members to facilitate the economical construction of a combination retaining wall, having the most advantageous form of retaining wall securement for the upper and lower regions thereof.
