Because of the ability to take into account nonlinear behavior, construction steps and soilstructure interaction, designs based on numerical analysis methods are likely to be more
economical and safer. However, the need to use two-dımensional (2D) models in
numerical analyses for practical reasons limits realistic solutions. Inability to model nailsoil interaction properly plays an important role. In a plane-strain idealızation nail elements
can be modeled as plate element, geogrid element and embedded beam row element. This
study aims at numerical modeling of soil nails using plate, geogrid and embedded beam
row elements. For this purpose, a full-scale model experiment reported in Clouterre 1986
is modeled using Plaxıs 2D program with these different elements and the nıumerical
results are compared with the experimental results. These comparisons indicate that use of
these elements can be used for soil nails.
