Abstract

Several typical existing calculation methods of earth pressure considering displacement are introduced and compared; Typical methods are used to calculate the condition of laboratory tests and the result is compared with that from Rankine earth pressure results to explain which is more reasonable. Based on the experimental model and data of Fang, it shows that the Lu's and Mei's calculation methods are still operational, and Mei's method is more close to the test data, which reflects the change of the earth pressure with the displacement of retaining wall better.
