JAE, Thank you. I did end up going to the generator routine option. I did appear to be very tailored to a wall holding back hydrostatic pressures and I still have difficulties with my trapezoidal loading. I ended up doing exactly what you said and selected bands of elements and applied...- pootypeters

I used SAP2000 while in school but my company has a license for RISA. I am creating a mesh of plate elements in RISA to simulate a tie-back retaining wall. The Geotechnical engineer gave me some loading diagrams that are triangular, trapezoidal, and uniform. It seems that I can easily apply the...- pootypeters
