N2  - This research work included field monitoring of MSE wall, laboratory work  performed on geogrid and backfill material, evaluation of different design  approaches of MSE walls and developing verification finite element model for the  test wall. Field monitoring of MSE wall was conducted through measuring of  generated strains along geogrid layers using strain gauges and by surveying and  monitoring of wall face lateral deformation using total station. Details on field  instrumental techniques & analysis of results are provided. Different MSE walls  design approaches are evaluated by comparing measured tensile forces in geogrids  with those evaluated using well established design approaches. In addition a  verification finite element model using (Plaxis 2D) was developed for the  monitored wall. Finally, comparison was performed between FE results and  measured strains and lateral deformations. Also, the measured tensile forces in  geogrids are compared to those predicted using FE model & different design  approaches reported in literature
