Geotextiles have been widely used in the reinforced retaining wall, but it is not easy to measure the deformation of the wall during and after construction. To assess the deformation stability of the reinforced retaining wall, an optical fiber sensor was used in geotextile. Based on the measurement accuracy of strain for the sensor geotextile, an actual geotextile-reinforced retaining wall was studied using the fiber sensor geotextile. The experimental results were compared with the results from a numerical procedure, which employs the Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion and an initial stress method and determines the plastic displacement at collapse represented by the distribution of yield elements. The comparison shows that the numerical results have a good agreement with the corresponding measurement values. The result shows the possibility that the procedure gives the realistic evaluation of long-term deformation of reinforced retaining wall.
