Great video Mr. Hasty. I'm not so sure for cantilevered retaining walls that having the heel under the soil is the most efficient though. Most efficient is having 2/3 toe and 1/3 heel. Having a toe to resist the overturning moment is much stronger than relying on the soil weight above the heel. Some systems we use often: secant piles, slurry walls, soldier piles with lagging and rakers/foot blocks and underpinning!

Hi Peter agree that a portion of heel and toe is the most efficient it has the benefit of the soil weight.

@@BrendanHasty Hi Brendan, I'm currently working with a cantilever retaining wall where the footing have to be place entirely on the toe side bc the building is already built on the retaining side. As you said, with this configuration we're not taking advantage of the weight of the soil for resisting the overturning moment. How you suggest to design a wall efficient enough in order to not have a extremely large footing when the solution of tieing the wall with a slab is not possible?

Secant pile wall not contiguous. Contiguous piles don’t overlap with each other. You also don’t need soft piles in granular material. Typically you only need soft piles to support the water pressure to avoid water flowing between the gaps of your piles. Typically in Australia contig piles are spaced with 100mm clear spacing. Big part of choosing the correct retaining wall is dependent on the ground conditions. Great video.

Hi Roseller, thanks for the correction and clarification. Agree that choosing right retention system is highly important and dependant on geological conditions. Alot of time now wet basement are not allowed like you will need a shotcrete wall in front of the contiguous pile system. Thanks for the support.

Also another suggestion is that a video on loads and bending moments as how they are applied or considered in a real world project. Thanks.

The main dilemma is when to use cantilever diaphragms and when to use cantilever diaphragms with internal struts. Even if we go with good calculations, cantilever diaphragms system had some collapses when it is without internal struts, because of large displacements of points on top of the wall.
@BrendanHasty

Hi Veke, this is similar to cantilever Pile systems as well, with concrete deflections are hard to do correctly. Even small displacements can cause issues with adjacent structures. It is something that you need to watch out for. Thanks for sharing.
