Dr. Amit Prashant provides a very useful construction document on Retaining Wall Design specifically foundation analysis and design.
Customary Retaining Walls :
• Gravity Retaining Structures
• Constancy is based on the independent weight of the wall
• Not cost-effective for design
Semi-gravity Retaining Structures:
• Least amout of reinforcement is applied in the wall to minimize the size of the wall
Cantilever Retaining Walls:
• Reinforced concrete is applied in wall design by thin stem and slab base
• Comparatively cost-effective for design
Counterfort/Buttressed Retaining Walls:
• Identical to Cantilever retaining walls but thin slab stems is applied at some space to affix the base slab and stem so as to minimize the shear force and bending moment to reduce the design costs significantly.
