Sliding SFs = 1.50

b) Strength Reduction Factor

Tension-controlled section (ACI 9.3.2.1) = 0.90
Shear and Torsion (ACI 9.3.2.3) = 0.75

1.5 Major Material

a) Stone Mansiry

- Cohesion = 0.59 kg/cm

2. ANALYSIS METHOD
a. Calculate all loads acting on the structure includes vertical loads due to self weight of concrete's
structure, horizontal loads due to active soil pressure, vertical and horizontal loads due to
uniform loads on the ground.
b. Calculate internal force at Retaining Wall including maximum horizontal load, maximum vertical
load, and maximum moment load.
c. Calculate allaowable soil bearing capacity
d. Check stability of Retaining Wall including overturning moment, sliding and bearing capacity
