Retaining wall + ADA switchback ramp
Retaining wall + ADA switchback ramp
(OP)
I started this another thread but a friend thought it belonged more over here. Hopefully I can continue the great help I've been getting.

At this point I don't know how to structuraly connect the retaining wall to the ADA switchback ramp? Calculate the friction factor as one piece? How to attach the dead load of the ramp to the retaining wall? That a lone can make a difference in the calcs.
I've attached a cad drawing to show if better or it might even help someone save time in the future.
With ADA guidelines being implemented more and more. I see this being a very intereseting topic.
Thank you and hope you all are having a good holiday start.
