Joe_Carrick Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Does anyone have a detail for a 10' tall CMU retaining wall with engineering calcs? This will be for a walkout basement and the top will be supported by the floor diaphragm above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownTiger Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I know i have a school text book on structural foundations at home. Saying this, we did reinforcing calcs with fin walls. Not sure if this is what you have in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylejmarsh Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 The codebook has a detail for a basement wall of 10' CMU, no engineering needed. Check out tables in section R404 - here's the 10" block version for reference. For an unsupported retaining wall, code requires proper engineering calcs. But if it's supported, the codebook tables should be legally acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
