    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    #11 bars are part of the permanent design of the secant wall. They will tie into the concrete wall that eventually goes on top of the secant wall. The TS4's are merely a spacer so to keep the street plates off of the #11 bar. Basically you got the 3' of W27 to work with. The 2-TS4's welded to...

    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    if anyone is curious, here is what we are building. material is being fabricated and should be all welded up in 2 weeks. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=89a9bcbf-0096-459e-92f9-180821b73e31&file=stk-baseR1_temp_ret_wall_(1).pdf

    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    don't know if anyone can view this, but I attached a picture of the site. In the picture you can see the drill rig and the beams sticking up at the bottom of the blue ladder.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=ff5163d1-9b33-4a35-b7eb-f4c437d6d9c3&file=DSCF1452.JPG

    Here is a scale dwg with dimensions, still struggling with the calcs.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=c4b44dce-a375-4e01-9748-b4e80dda5454&file=stk-baseR1_temp_ret_wall_(1).pdf

    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    This is a temporary condition but not feasible to use the soldier beams. Contractor is trying to make use with material onsite. The secant piles are being drilled right now. The beams are placed inside the shaft and then it is filled with concrete. Once the secant wall is complete (2 weeks), the...

    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    only cantilever 5' but the general concensus is for bracing. I was hoping to not need welds. I will probably design something at a 45d angle off the back of the beam to about the midpoint of the street plate.

    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    The piers and beams are 3' on center and the main purpose is for a secant wall that is drilled 80' down. The temporary retaining wall using the street plate is so the drill rig can drill the sand shafts from a higher elevation. I guess your question is the one I am trying to answer...Will the...

    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    no welds, this wall will be temporary for the drill rig to drill the sand trench. the 143k includes the extraction force for drilling. I need to calculate the magnitude and location of the horizontal force on the wall due to the surcharge of the drill rig and the horizontal force of the soil on...

    temp. retaining wall using a beam in concrete and 1" 'street plate'

    I need advice on designing a temporary retaining wall on a construction site. I want to utilize the H-beams (W27x102)that extend out of 48" diameter concrete shafts (secant wall) approximately 3' to prop up a 'street plate' 8'x20'x1". So the retaining wall will be 8' high with the bottom 3'...
