NCHRP Synthesis 644: Asset Management Practices for Mechanically Stabilized Earth Walls

This synthesis documents how state DOTs manage Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls in their inventories, including practices for maintenance, rehabilitation, assessment, and life-cycle cost analysis. While MSE walls are common in transportation projects for their efficiency and resilience, most are too new to evaluate long-term performance, and design standards have evolved significantly over time.
