In order to determine reliable dimensions of an anchorage system and satisfactory operation of the watertight liner in a waste landfill, it is essential to make an accurate assessment of the tensions acting on the geosynthetics on the top of the slope. Experimental and theoretical studies have been carried out in parallel. The former concern a full-scale experiment undertaken in Montreuil sur Barse on a waste storage site with instrumented slope. The latter concern anchorage tests performed on a scale model for different anchorage geometries.
