Retaining walls and slope stabilization systems are important components in civil and geotechnical engineering. The wrong retaining system choice may cause structural collapse, resulting in huge costs and potential safety risks. The retaining system choice is influenced by soil properties, angle of the slopes, groundwater, and loads. Today, retaining systems such as gabion retaining walls, mechanically stabilized earth walls, and reinforced concrete retaining walls are available and can be effectively used if the wrong retaining system choice is avoided.
