1.0 Design Conditions: Retaining Wall: 1.1 Design Criteria

The document provides design conditions and computations for a retaining wall for the proposed Marikina Upper Dam project. It details the design criteria, materials, geometry, and calculations of loads on the retaining wall. Parameters like unit weights, material strengths, soil bearing pressure and wall dimensions are specified. Dead and earth pressures loads are calculated. Forces on the wall and footing are determined to design the reinforced concrete members.
