restrained wall boundary conditon
in a laterally restrained wall what boundary condition should be applied to the base between the wall and footing? if assumed to be fixed (as a retaining wall) then how does it get built to create this fixity? would a double mat of reinforcement be required or a monolithic pour which is seemly impossible for a large wall and footing. thanks for any input on this subject.
we just had a pretty good discussion on this. see this thread -
thanks, that was a great discussion.
