Abstract
In this study, experiments were carried out after fabricating and installing a physical model considering the size of the prototype. In the model test, the number of struts placed on the wall and the applied acceleration were selected as test variables. Two different types of waves, long-period and short-period, were applied with magnitudes of 0.05g, 0.1g, 0.2g, and 0.3g. Measured are displacements at specified points. As a result of the analysis, displacement exceeding the allowable displacement of the wall occurred at an acceleration greater than 0.05g to 0.1g depending on the seismic waves applied. Therefore guidelines have to be established through further studies for aseismic design of earth retaining walls.
