Surcharge Pressure on Retaining Walls - 2
Surcharge Pressure on Retaining Walls - 2
(OP)
This is really just a reevaluation of this thread (A great thread by the way):
Surcharge Pressure on Retaining Walls
thread255-150849: Surcharge Pressure on Retaining Walls
Basically I was wondering if there has been any texts/codes/manuals published since this thread that would help explain or determine where the "cut-off" is for an offset surcharge.
What I would like is some publication that I could reference that would list some parameters that says if the offset surcharge is beyond the failure plane or 1:1 then it will not influence the wall.
I'm also wondering if cap4000 has changed is his opinion.
