Retaining wall relates to a formation planned and forged to defy the lateral pressure of soil when there is a desired modification takes place in ground elevation that goes beyond the soil’s angle of repose.
Retaining Wall Categories:
There are various kinds of retaining wall such as Gravity, Cantilivered, Sheet Piling, Bored Pile, Anchored.
Alternative retaining systems:
As a substitute there are also some techniques available like Soil nailing, Soil-strengthened, Gabion meshes, Mechanical stabilization, etc.
The active pressure improves the retaining wall in balanced ratios from zero at the upper grade level to a highest rate at the lowest profundity of the wall. With the aim of become functional, retaining walls should be reinforced accurately.
Civil Engineering Retaining Wall Design Spreadsheet is a very handy tool to design a retaining wall following some trouble-free course of action. The spreadsheet contains tabs to work out stability, moment and shear, reinforcement and so forth.
