EARTH RETAINING WALL IN WEAK FOUNDATION AND METHOD OF RETAINING EARTH

摘要

PURPOSE:To facilitate the construction of an earth retaining wall and to reduce the cost thereof by arranging columnar bodies each composed of excavated mud and a filler which are mixed together, in a plurality of rows, and by overlapping these columnar bodies with each other so as to form an integral wall member. CONSTITUTION:Columnar bodies 2 each composed of excavated mud and a filler which are mixed together are arranged longitudinally and laterally in an array. Then, the columnar bodies 2 are incorporated with each other through overlapping parts 2 in which the outer peripheral parts of the columnar bodies 2 are overlapped with each other so as to form a wall structure in which the columnar bodies 2 are integrally incorporated. Further, the wall structure has a weight and a height with which it can resist against the earth pressure. With this arrangement, the sound retaining is suitable for planar excavation with an arbitrary shape while no support being required, thereby it is possible to build a earth retaining wall at a low cost.
