Folks,
See attached sketch. I have a situation where the footing needs to be founded at 2m below the Existing Ground Level (left side). The right side is backfilled to 4.2m elevation. I don't want to extend the wall all the way to the bottom if I can avoid it.
However, how do I account for the overturning moment due to this partial height retaining element?
