4 JR WALL
The Japan Railway Technical Research Institute constructed a half-scale model
shaking table test for the wall system that has a rigid facing and short
reinforcement (Murata et al., 1994). Fig. 13 shows the test setup. The wall was
2.5m high and 3.5m wide. The backfill sand had a mean diameter of 0.2mm, of
dry unit weight 16 kN/m 3 , and 16% fines. It was constructed on a medium loose
foundation. A geogrid of strength 10 kN/m, which was one third of the prototype,
