CRSI Retaining Wall Tables
CRSI Retaining Wall Tables
(OP)
What are the "D" bars in the CRSI retaining wall tables for? I assume shear but there is little info given about them and they aren't included in any of the past tables.

14-11, ""D" bars in the stem/base were designed for shear at the base of the stem and at the face of the heel". They also show calculations in manual exampples on pages 14-17 and 14-20.

This key is commonly made with a 2x4 or 2x6, however IMHO roughing the surface appropriately is just as good or better. The CRSI D bars are used for shear friction at the stem to foundation interface however many people (including myself) use the vertical reinforcing dowels for shear friction without the additional D-bars if possible.
