An old residential structure with failed basement wall (structural cracks all around). Any ideas on how to reinforce the retaining structure such as an L-shaped wall with Toe lying on top of basement slab? Sliding becomes an issue...any ideas...Much appreciated.

Thanks,

Also, when you specify PT lumber, it can't be Douglas Fir as it is untreatable.
