AbstractA new approach to the limit equilibrium method is developed and used for the analysis of soil nailed walls. The basic procedure of the new approach is to compute the interslice forces by recursion and to fulfill the equilibrium requirement for interslice forces of the last boundary slice by iteration. Reliability analysis for soil nailed walls is carried out by considering the cohesion and internal friction angle of soil as random variables. The degree of mobilization of friction resistance between the nails and surrounding soil is taken as a third random variable. A parametric study is carried out to study the effect of soil behavior and the arrangement pattern of nails on the factor of safety and reliability index. Finally, an optimization technique is employed to obtain the minimum cost design of soil nailed walls with an object function expressed by the total nail length, which is considered an appropriate measure of the total cost of a soil nailed wall.
