For years i've been designing restrained basement walls for commercial construction with rebar at 12" oc EW as an example of the typical norm.
So why do residential basement walls not require rebar like commercial structures do? How is this possible?
I've heard a residential contractor say, "We don't do that in residential construction." So how do natural forces know whether or not to act dependent upon building occupancy?
