Experimental Study on the Active Earth Pressure of Narrow Cohesionless Backfills against Rigid Retaining Wall under the Translation Mode

In engineering, the new retaining walls are often constructed near the existing structure owing to the space limitation. The backfill behind the retaining wall is narrow, which causes an overestimation in the active earth pressure by using Coulomb’s earth pressure theory. In previous studies, experi...
