A method of installing one or more elements of ground Reinforcement in Angle to resist Seismic Shear stresses, involves the insertion of a rigid element in a Soil Matrix Angle at a certain angle and a certain depth; and associated System.

摘要

A soil reinforcement system including angled soil reinforcement elements to resist seismic shear forces and methods of making same are disclosed. For example, the soil reinforcement system includes an array or grid of angled soil reinforcement elements installed within the ground, wherein the angled reinforcement elements are designed to absorb and/or resist earthquake-induced seismic shear forces by transferring the applied shear forces into axial compressive and tensile forces within each of the angled reinforcement elements.
