Geosynthetic Reinforced Retaining Wall Applications

Turkey's Innovative Geotechnical and Infrastructure Engineering Company!

Geosynthetic reinforced retaining walls are modern engineering structures where high-strength geosynthetic reinforcement elements are used to stabilize soil masses. Developed as an alternative to traditional reinforced concrete or stone retaining walls, these systems use geogrids, geotextiles, or geosynthetic strips placed within the soil mass to work together with the soil as the load-bearing element of the wall. Surface cladding typically consists of concrete panels, blocks, or natural stone-appearance elements.

Atlas Geo offers long-lasting, safe, and environmentally sensitive solutions in its geosynthetic reinforced retaining wall systems designed in accordance with international standards, ensuring integrated performance between the soil and structure.

Geosynthetic reinforced retaining walls have a wide range of applications:

  • Highway and Railway Infrastructure: For road widening, junction arrangements, and slope supports.
  • Industrial and Commercial Building Projects: In logistics areas, industrial facilities, and parking structures.
  • Urban Transformation and Housing Projects: For space gain and landscape arrangements.
  • Hydroelectric Power Plants and Water Structures: In dam, canal, and stream rehabilitation projects.
  • Mining and Energy Projects: In mining site infrastructure, crusher walls, and fill supports.
  1. Economical and Rapid Implementation Provides time and cost advantages through less concrete usage and quick assembly compared to traditional systems.
  2. High Strength and Long Service Life Geosynthetic reinforcements show high resistance to UV rays, chemical effects, and environmental conditions. Design life of up to 120 years is possible.
  3. Flexible and Earthquake-Resistant Structure Due to its flexible structure that can adapt to differential settlements in the soil, it demonstrates superior performance against earthquake loads.
  4. Aesthetic and Landscape Compatible Offers natural-looking, environmentally harmonious solutions with different surface cladding options. Green wall applications can be made on the surface when desired.
  5. Environmentally Friendly Reduces carbon footprint with minimal concrete use and natural fill materials, contributing to sustainable construction principles.
  6. High Stability and Drainage Performance The porous structure allows easy evacuation of rainwater and groundwater; provides long-term performance without requiring additional drainage systems.

At Atlas Geo, we meticulously apply the following steps in every geosynthetic reinforced retaining wall project:

  1. Soil Survey and Analysis: Detailed geotechnical examination is conducted on site.
  2. Custom Design Work: Static calculations, global stability, sliding, overturning, and bearing capacity analyses are performed.
  3. Material Selection: Fill material, geosynthetic reinforcements, and surface cladding types are selected specifically for the project.
  4. Implementation and Quality Control: Manufacturing is done according to standards, quality control tests are carried out at every stage.
