    push wall foundation and design

    oh thanks! understand. Well the soil only seem to handle about 23 kn at the top. If i were to constribute the load across half the length of the wall (10m) and with a safety factor of 1,5. i would get 14 kn. not sure if im comfortable with that though.

    push wall foundation and design

    Not sure what you mean spreading the load. the wall is about 10m in length. If the horizontal force at the top is set to 44kn/m. Should i constribute the load to be 4.4kn/m instead? Not sure how the point load would act across the length of the wall, i guess it is not right to assume its 44kn/m.

This will be designed as retaing wall as the contractor will then use crushed...
