CONNECTION RESULTS TABLE
Connection results compare the load on the connection (pullout at the face) to the resistance of the
connection. In the NCMA design methodolgy the connection load accounts for the loading 'over the active zone' in the
failure plane from each reinforcing layer. Note that live load (LL) in Tmax for the reinforcing layer is the load
calculated from the base of the wall and maybe larger then LL for the connection (Tcn)
AASHTO design methodology (Simplified or Stiffness) the connection load, To, is equal to the Tmax in the
reinforcing. In Limit equilibrium the the connection load (To) is less than the Tmax in the reinforcing layer as it is
calculated at each layer of reinforcing, similar to the Trial Wedge Method using in REA software.

GLOBAL RESULTS
Global stability is a global analysis (Bishop) with the failure planes originating at the top of the slope / wall and exiting
out below the wall in the area infront of the structure. For MSE walls, the resistance of the geogrid reinforcement is
included in the resisting forces. The curve may go through the base of the wall and the wall shear would be included.
In most cases the failure plane will pass below the structure.

GLOBAL RESULTS
Global stability is a global analysis (Bishop) with the failure planes originating at the top of the slope / wall and exiting
out below the wall in the area infront of the structure. For MSE walls, the resistance of the geogrid reinforcement is
included in the resisting forces. The curve may go through the base of the wall and the wall shear would be included.
In most cases the failure plane will pass below the structure.

Connection results compare the load on the connection (pullout at the face) to the resistance of the
connection. In the NCMA design methodolgy the connection load accounts for the loading 'over the active zone' in the
failure plane from each reinforcing layer. Note that live load (LL) in Tmax for the reinforcing layer is the load
calculated from the base of the wall and maybe larger then LL for the connection (Tcn)
AASHTO design methodology (Simplified or Stiffness) the connection load, To, is equal to the Tmax in the
reinforcing. In Limit equilibrium the the connection load (To) is less than the Tmax in the reinforcing layer as it is
calculated at each layer of reinforcing, similar to the Trial Wedge Method using in REA software.

GLOBAL RESULTS
Global stability is a global analysis (Bishop) with the failure planes originating at the top of the slope / wall and exiting
out below the wall in the area infront of the structure. For MSE walls, the resistance of the geogrid reinforcement is
included in the resisting forces. The curve may go through the base of the wall and the wall shear would be included.
In most cases the failure plane will pass below the structure.

GLOBAL RESULTS
Global stability is a global analysis (Bishop) with the failure planes originating at the top of the slope / wall and exiting
out below the wall in the area infront of the structure. For MSE walls, the resistance of the geogrid reinforcement is
included in the resisting forces. The curve may go through the base of the wall and the wall shear would be included.
In most cases the failure plane will pass below the structure.

CONNECTION RESULTS TABLE
Connection results compare the load on the connection (pullout at the face) to the resistance of the
connection. In the NCMA design methodolgy the connection load accounts for the loading 'over the active zone' in the
failure plane from each reinforcing layer. Note that live load (LL) in Tmax for the reinforcing layer is the load
calculated from the base of the wall and maybe larger then LL for the connection (Tcn)
AASHTO design methodology (Simplified or Stiffness) the connection load, To, is equal to the Tmax in the
reinforcing. In Limit equilibrium the the connection load (To) is less than the Tmax in the reinforcing layer as it is
calculated at each layer of reinforcing, similar to the Trial Wedge Method using in REA software.

GLOBAL RESULTS
Global stability is a global analysis (Bishop) with the failure planes originating at the top of the slope / wall and exiting
out below the wall in the area infront of the structure. For MSE walls, the resistance of the geogrid reinforcement is
included in the resisting forces. The curve may go through the base of the wall and the wall shear would be included.
In most cases the failure plane will pass below the structure.

CONNECTION RESULTS TABLE
Connection results compare the load on the connection (pullout at the face) to the resistance of the
connection. In the NCMA design methodolgy the connection load accounts for the loading 'over the active zone' in the
failure plane from each reinforcing layer. Note that live load (LL) in Tmax for the reinforcing layer is the load
calculated from the base of the wall and maybe larger then LL for the connection (Tcn)
AASHTO design methodology (Simplified or Stiffness) the connection load, To, is equal to the Tmax in the
reinforcing. In Limit equilibrium the the connection load (To) is less than the Tmax in the reinforcing layer as it is
calculated at each layer of reinforcing, similar to the Trial Wedge Method using in REA software.

CONNECTION RESULTS TABLE
Connection results compare the load on the connection (pullout at the face) to the resistance of the
connection. In the NCMA design methodolgy the connection load accounts for the loading 'over the active zone' in the
failure plane from each reinforcing layer. Note that live load (LL) in Tmax for the reinforcing layer is the load
calculated from the base of the wall and maybe larger then LL for the connection (Tcn)
AASHTO design methodology (Simplified or Stiffness) the connection load, To, is equal to the Tmax in the
reinforcing. In Limit equilibrium the the connection load (To) is less than the Tmax in the reinforcing layer as it is
calculated at each layer of reinforcing, similar to the Trial Wedge Method using in REA software.

GLOBAL RESULTS
Global stability is a global analysis (Bishop) with the failure planes originating at the top of the slope / wall and exiting
out below the wall in the area infront of the structure. For MSE walls, the resistance of the geogrid reinforcement is
included in the resisting forces. The curve may go through the base of the wall and the wall shear would be included.
In most cases the failure plane will pass below the structure.
