Abstract

Usually protective structures are often used in coastal area and river or sea sides. In most cases, these structures are retaining walls which used to prevent the river sides erosion . Due to the contact of structures with the local soil , the study of soil interaction with structures and lateral pressure of soil is very important. Hence, the effect of particle size and compaction of backfill behind the wall is studied as an elastic analysis of wedge of body motion cantilever retaining wall in this article.
