Abstract
Retaining wall with pressure relief shelves is one of the special types of retaining wall. High reinforced concrete retaining walls may be used economically by providing relief shelves on the backfill side of wall. Such walls may be termed as the retaining wall with relief shelf. Lateral earth pressure on wall and increasing overall stability of the structure. This results in an economical design because less material goes into the wall as Compared to massive structure of cantilever or even counterfort retaining walls without the shelves. one relief shelf to investigate different factors, such as the distribution of pressure over the height of the wall as a function of the position and the dimensions of the platform under the effect of a variably distributed load on the backfill surface ; the distribution of the pressure on the platform as a function of the intensity and the location of the load; the nature of the change in pressure on the wall and on the platform in the presence of forward movements of the wall; the size of the sliding wedge and the position of the sliding surface for walls with platforms; and the stress of the backfill behind the wall.
