Retaining wall systems are used to retain earth and achieve grade separation between two adjacent points at different elevations. There are many types of retaining wall systems, including concrete, steel, gabions, sheet piling and reinforced soil. The GEOWEB Retaining Wall System, in general, belongs to the reinforced soil category. Depending on the slope angle and site conditions, retaining wall systems are commonly referred to as gravity walls, reinforced walls or reinforced soil slopes. GEOWEB retaining walls make it possible to stabilize soil at the face of the wall or slope with a naturally-vegetated fascia. In this respect, GEOWEB walls are unique systems that far exceed the capabilities of conventional structures.

Learning Objectives:
• Understand fundamentals of different types of retaining wall systems with GEOWEB
• Introduction to design of GEOWEB Retaining Wall Systems
• Distinguishing features of GEOWEB walls and what sets them apart from other types of walls
• Introduction to available design tools and software
