Key Goal of Design
• Safety
• Expression of Safety• Resistance > Load• Load < Resistance
• Capacity > Demand• Demand < Capacity
Design Platforms• Several available design platforms
• Traditional • ASD – Allowable Stress Design
• Recent• LRFD – Load and Resistance
Factor Design
LRFD vs. ASD• Regardless of the method, the
following condition must be satisfied
Load Effects ≤ Resistance
• Difference in methods is based on how uncertainties in loads and resistances are accounted for

Uncertainties
• Magnitude
• Direction
• Location
• Frequency
• Combinations
• Soil variability
• Prediction model
• Construction QC
• Extent of exploration
• Failure consequences
ResistancesLoads
How do you account for uncertainties?
Load ≤ Resistance
Allowable Stress Design (ASD)
• Uncertainty in loads and resistances is combined in a single FS applied to nominal resistance

Notations
• (phi) is used for both the soil frictionangle and LRFD resistance factor– Friction angle is subscripted to
differentiate from load factor, e.g., r
• (gamma) is used for both soil unitweight and LRFD load factor– Unit weight is subscripted to differentiate
from load factor, e.g., r
LRFD vs. ASD
• Load and resistance factors for MSE walls are currently calibrated by fittingto ASD results.
• Therefore, designs using LRFD procedure should not significantly vary from past, expected ASD designs.
Concept of Limit State
• A limit state can be thought of as a boundary between desired and undesired performance of a design feature
• A limit state is alternatively known as “performance criterion”

Maximum & Minimum Load Factors
• Two load factors, a maximum and a minimum, are listed for permanent loads
• For each load combination, both maximum and minimum permanent loads shall be investigated.
• For permanent force effects, the load factors that produces the more critical combination shall be selected.
Note
• For External Stability, the typicalapplication of load factors to produce the extreme factored force effect is illustrated in the following figures

Typical Applicable Transient Loads for MSE Walls
Transient Loads
CT = Vehicular collision force Extreme EventEQ = Earthquake load
LL = Vehicular live load Design EventLS = Live load surcharge
• There are no max or min values. Either apply or don’t apply the transient load with the single load factor
Live Load Surcharge (LS)
• A live load surcharge (LS) is applied where vehicular load (LL) is expected to act on the surface of the backfill within a distance equal to one-half of the wall height behind the back face of the wall
• LS is a uniform surcharge

Note:
• For most designs, strength limit states generally controls.
• Service limit states may control aspects such as joint width openings, etc.
• Extreme event limit states may affect both the member sizes as well as deformations.

Note:
• Complete lists of Load Notations, Load Combinations, and Load Factors for Permanent Loads are in Reference Manual – Appendix B.
• Only a few of these loads and load combinations are applicable to MSE walls on a routine basis. These are:
Capacity:Demand Ratio
CDR can be used to compare min and max load factors, to compare controlling case between different limit states, and to compare what aspect (eg., sliding, bearing, e) is controlling a design.
