  <abstract>This study are focus on field behavior of mechanically stabilized embankment  which was carried out on a fully instrumented hexagonal wire mesh reinforcement  constructed on soft clay foundation at Asian Institute of Technology campus. The  reinforced wall consist of 80 degree gabion cages facing on one side and a sloping  umeinforced opposite side with the total height of 5.71 meters. Settlements, pore pressure,  lateral movement of subsoil were monitored during and after construction. Laboratory and  in-situ test of subsoil foundation were carried out. By observing the lateral movements and  settlements. It was observed that the maximum settlement of 0.350 m for 200 days after  construction while the settlement prediction by using one-dimensional (Terzaghi, 1947),  three-dimensional (Skempton and Bjerrum, 1957), the method proposed by Asaoka (1978)  and the water content method (Bergado et al, 1995) were found to be higher than  observations which are 579 mm, 522 mm, 448 mm and 576 mm, respectively. The degree  of consolidation of the foundation subsoil is 78% at 200 days after construction. The  maximum lateral movement was 0.15 m for 200 days after construction that was occurred  in foundation soil at 3 to 4 m depth. The maximum excess pore water pressure for both  type of hexagonal wire mesh area occur 2.7 and 3.3 t/m 2 at 3 m and 6 m depth,  respectively, for 7 days after construction. The external stability was analyzed namely  ove1turning, horizontal sliding and bearing capacity. The factor of safety for those stability  are 25, 5.6 and 1.2, respectively. </abstract>
