DESIGN OF T SHAPED CANTILEVER RETAINING WALL
2 Diamension of base:-
sin b = 0.2756 cos b = 0.961 tanb = 0.287
Sin F = 0.5 Cos F = 0.866
x 0.38 x 0.961
b = 4.00 = 2.27
( 1 - 0.07 )x( 1 + 0.22 )
The base width from the considration of sliding is given by Eq.
0.7HKa 0.7 x 4.00 x 0.38
b = = = 3.28 m
(1-a) m ( 1 - 0.07 )x 0.35
This width is excessive. Normal practice is to provide b between 0.4 to 0.6 H .
Taking maximum value of H = 0.6 b = 0.60 x 4.00 = 2.40 m
Hence Provided b = 2.40 m
The wall will be unsafe against sliding. This will be made safe by providing a shear Key at base .
Width of toe slab = a x b = 0.07 x 2.40 = 0.18 m Provided toe slab = 0.20 m
Let the thickness of base be = H/12 = 4.00 / 12 = 0.33 or say = 0.30 m for design
Hence width of heel slab = 2.40 - 0.30 - 0.20 = 1.90 m purpose
3 Thickness of stem:-
Heigth AB = 4.00 - 0.30 = 3.70 m consider 1 m length of retaining wall
Kxy x H12 0.38 x 15 x( 3.70 )2
Maximum Bending momentat B = = = 38.96

pk_nandwana@yahoo.co.in
Hence the horizontal earth pressure is PH= P cos b = 38.96 x 0.961 = 37 kN

Effective depth required = = = 237 mm
Rxb 0.812 x 1000
Keep d = 240 mm and total thickness = 240 + 60 = 300
Assuming that 12 mm F bar will be used. a nominal cover of = 60 - 6 = 54 mm
Reduce the total thickness
= 200 mm at top so that effective depth of = 140 mm
to

4 Stability of wall:-
Length of heel slab = 2.40 - 0.20 - 0.3 = 1.90 m
Height H2= H1+Ls tan b = 3.70 + 1.90 x 0.287 = 4.24 m
Height H = 4.24 + 0.30 = 4.54 m
Ka x y x H2 0.38 x 15 x( 4.54 )2
Earth pressure p= = = 58.78 kN
2 2
Its horizontal and vertical component are
PH = P cos b = 58.78 x 0.961 = 56.50 kN
PV = P sin b 58.78 x 0.276 = 16.20 kN
P is acting on vertical face IG, at H/3 and hence Pv , will act the vertical line
Full dimension wall is shown in fig 1a
Let W1 = weight of rectangular portion of stem
w2 = weight of triangular portion of stem
w3 = weight of base slab
w4 = weight of soil on heel slab.
The calculation are arrenged in Table

p = 134.08 - x 0.20 = ### kN-m2

Pressure p' at the junction of stem with Heel slab is
134.08 - 8.03
p' = 134.08 - x 1.90 = 34.29 kN-m2

5 Design of toe slab:-
The upward pressure distribution on the toe slab is shown in fig 1b .The weight of soil above
the toe slab is neglicted . Thus two forces are acting on it
(1) Up ward soil pressure (2) Down ward weight of slab
Down ward weight of slab per unit area = 0.30 x 1 x 1.00 x 25 = 7.50 kN-m2
Hence net pressure intensities will be = 134.08 - 7.50 = ### kN-m2 under D
And at under E = 123.58 - 7.50 = ### kN-m2
Total force = S.F. at E = 0.50 x( ### + ### ) x 0.20 = 24.27 kN
116.08 + 2.00 x ### x 0.20
x from E = = 0.10 m
116.08 + 126.58 3
\ B.M. at E = 24.27 x 0.10 = 2.46 kN-m
BM 2.46 x 10 6
Effective depth required = = = 55 mm
Rxb 0.812 x 1000
Keep effective depth d = 60 mm and total thickness = 60 + 60 = 120
Reduce the total thickness to = 100 mm or 0.10 m at edge say = 0.12
24.27 x 1000
tv = = 0.202 N/mm2 < tc even at mimum steel

The reinforcement has to be provided at bottom face .If alternate bars of stem reiforcerment are
are bent and continued in toe slab, area available = 1/2 x 942 = 471 mm2 (see step 7)

using 12 mm bars A =
4 4
\ Spacing A x1000 / Ast = 113 x 1000 / 163 = 690 mm
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 690 mm c/c
Let us check this reinforcement for development length Ld=45 F = 45 x 12 = 540 mm
Providing 30 mm clear side cover actual length available = 200 - 30 = 170
170 < 540 Hence not safe

6 Design of heel slab :-
Three force act on it
1. down ward weight of soil 2 weight of heel slab 3 Down ward earth pressure 4 upward soil pressure
Total weight of 3.70 + 4.24

Acting at = x = 0.972 m from B
(H1+H2)x3 3.70 + 4.24 3
Total weight of heel slab = 1.90 x 0.12 x 1 x 25 = 5.70 kN
Acting at 0.95 m from B.
Earth pressure intencity at b = Ka.y.H1 per unit inclined area, at b to horizontal,
\ Earth pressure at B, on horizontal unitarea = Ka.y.H 1.tan b
Vertical component of this, at B = Ka.y.H1 .tan b.sin b .(I)
Similarly, Vertical component of earth pressure intencity at C =Ka.y.H 2 tan b. sin b. .(II)
Hence total force due to vertical component of earth pressure is
(H1+H2)
= Ka.y x b1 tan b x sin b
pk_nandwana@yahoo.co.in

vertical earth pressure is = 3.39 kN This Act at 0.97 m from B
Total upward soil pressure = 1/2 x( 34.29 + 8.03 )x 1.90 = 40.22 kN
34.29 + 2 x 8.03 1.90
Acting at = x = 0.75 m from B
34.29 + 8.03 3
\ Total force = S.F. at B = ### + 5.70 - 40.22 = 79.48 kN
\ B.M. at B =( 114 x 0.97 )+( 6 x 0.95 )+( 3.39 x 0.97 )-( 40.22 x 0.75
= 89.18 x 10'6 N-mm2
This is much lessthan the B.M. on slab. However, we keep the same depth, as that toe slab,i.e.
d= 60 mm and D 120 mm, reducing it to 100 mm at edge

Bend these bars into toe slab, to serve as reiforcement there. Sufficient devlopment length ia available.
Between A and B some of bars can be curtailed. Cosider a section at depth below the top of stem
+ 240 - 140
The effective depth d' at section is = 140 x h (where h In meter)
H

d' = 140 + x h =( 140 + 25.77 x h )
3.88

Now As Ast or H =( Ast d )1/3

Hence = Ast d
H1
where Ast' = reinforcement at depth h Ast = reinforcement at depth H1
d' = effective depthat depth h d = effective depthat depth H1
Ast' 1 h 1 d' 1/3
if Ast = 1/2 Ast than \ = x
Ast = 2 H1 2 d
Subsituting d = 250 mm and d' =( 140 + 25.8 x h ) we get
140 + 25.8 x h 1/3
h = H1 x
2 x 250
140 x 25.8 x h 1/3
h = 3.88 x
2 x 250
h = 0.489 x ( 140 + 25.8 x h )1/3
h = 0 m 0.489 x ( 140 + 25.8 x h) 1/3- h = 2.55
Howerver, the bars should be extented by a distance of 12 F = 12 x 12 = 144 mm
Or d = 240 mm whichever is more beyond the point.
\ h = 0 - 0.24 = -0.24 m. Hence curtailed half bars at at height of
-0.24 m below the top . If we wish to curtailed half of the remaining bars so that remaining

remaining reinforcement is one forth of that provided ar B, we have = Hence from .(2)

h = 2.19 m 0.388 x ( 140 + 25.8 x h) 1/3- h = 0.07
This can be solved bytrial and error, Noting that if the effective thickness of stem w=are constant,
.Howerver, the bars should be extented by a distance of 12 F = 12 x 12 = 144 mm
Or d = 240 mm whichever is more beyond the point.
\ h = 2.19 - 0.24 = 1.95 m. Hence stop half bars the remaining bars
by 1.95 m below the top of the stem . Continue rest of the bars to the top of the stem

The wall is in unsafe in sliding, and hence shear key will be provided below the stem as shown in fig.
Let u sprovide ashear key 300 x 300 Let Pp be the intensity of passive pressure devloped
in front of key this intencity Pp depend upon the soil pressure P in front of the key
Pp = KpP = 1/Ka= 1/ 0.38 = 2.64 x ### = 325.65
\ total passive pressure Pp = Pp x a = 325.65 x 0.30 = 97.70 kN

Sliding force at level GJ = 0.38 x x 4.66 x cos b
2.00
or PH = 2.85 x( 4.66 )2x 0.961 = 59.53 kN .(2)
Weight of the soil between bottom of the base and GJ = 2.40 x 15 x 0.30 = 10.80
\ SW = 170.54 + 10.80 = 181.34 kN Refer force calculation table
Hence equilibrium of wall, permitting F.S. = 1.5 against sliding we have
m Sw+Pp 0.5 x 181.34 + 97.70
1.5 = = = 3.16 > 1.5 Hence safe
PH 59.53
However, provided minimum value of a = 300 mm. Keep width of key 300 mm (equal to stem width)
it should be noted that passive pressure taken into account above will be devloped only when length
a1 given below is avilable in front of key ;
F where (45 + F/2) =
a1 = a tan F = a tan x 45 + = a kp
2 shearing angle of passive resistance
\ a1 = 0.3 x ( 2.64 )1/2
a1 = 0.487 m Actual length of the slab available = DE = 0.20
Hence satisfactory.
Now size of key = 300 x 300 mm
Actual force to be resisted by the key at F.S. 1.5 is = 1.5PH - mSW
= 1.5 x 59.53 - 0.5 x 181.34
= -1.38 kN
-1.38 x 1000
\ shear stress = = -0.005 N/mm2
300 x 1000
-1.38 x 150 x 1000
Bending stress =

Since concrete can take this much of tensile stress, no special reinforcement is necessary for the shear key
