Reinforced concrete cantilever retaining wall analysis and design aci 318 14 reinforced concrete cantilever retaining walls consist of a relatively thin stem and a base slab.
Two equations are developed.
The stem may have constant thickness along the length or may be tapered based on economic and construction criteria.
The base is divided into two parts the heel and toe.
