rtt says:

I’m designing a foundation wall for a house. The wall has a retaining height between 4 to 8 ft, and is supported by a continuous footing. I was wondering if it’s reasonable to utilize passive soil pressure to resist sliding if I’m assuming a “restrained” wall condition.

Mayur says:

Sir, May I know how the load on top of the buildings transfers to the soil at the bottom of the foundation?

Respected Sir,
I have a project of Designing Biogas plant
So i want yo know all information about biogas plant
what are the components of biogas
please do the needful

Its urgentreply me soon

rtt says:

I wanted to add a few things from my previous post. First, the wall is supported by a concrete floor slab above and a footing below. Second, the wall is CMU and is 8″ thick. Third, I’m using the “at-rest” condition to calculate lateral earth pressures. Lastly, the soil slopes down on the toe side of the footing. So I’m wondering if we can use passive pressure for sliding resistance, mainly due to these last two points.
