Constant Width Retaining Wall with Footing on High Side

This is a CAD dwg drawing of a Constant Width Retaining Wall with Footing on High Side. Complete and fully designed cantilevered retaining wall with 5 different soil retaining conditions, where the eccentric footing is on the high side of soil.

You will never have to design another retaining wall of this type. Use this drawing design as is with all your projects and you are done.

Cantilevered Retaining wall drawing with design and dimensioning parameters that have been pre-calculated and presented with the included parameters table. Designs available for soil retaining capacity range from 1.50m to 3.50m which is more or less the maximum capacity for a cost effective solution for this type of soil retaining walls. All designs have been carried out using eurocodes including earthquake loadings.

Although walls footing is best to be under the retaining soil for better over-tip stability, it is usually not the case. This type of footing, where the footing is on the favorable high side of soil ( soil acts as a stability load on the footing ) can only be applied in the case where the soil to be retained is an infill / backfill. In this case the retaining wall with its footing is constructed first and then the soil can be backfilled.
