Description:

This document provides guidelines for reconfiguration of earth reinforcements to avoid obstructions found within the reinforced fill during Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) wall construction. The guidance provided herein is intended to assist Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) design engineers, consultants, MSE wall suppliers, contractors, and TxDOT field inspectors when selecting alternative reinforcement configurations to resolve conflicts between design reinforcement layouts and obstructions. This Field Guide places special emphasis on the types of obstructions and MSE reinforcements that are most commonly encountered in TxDOT MSE wall construction practice.
