Dear Sir,
We have reviewed the compliance of our comments & observations for Reinforcement Drawings of
Retaining wall & Breast wall raised vide our office letter no. JC/MA V/NDS/DCC/36761 dtd 13/03/2020,
submitted for the project vides your Email from Mr. Chandan Kumar Das at

Revised Comments and Observations for Reinforcement drawing of

Active Earth Pressure

per IRC:6-2017 214.1
214.1.1 states that Active
Pressure point of application
is 0.3h for wet soil and as
we have considered
saturated wet soil for our
design it remains valid

Load factors must be
considered as per IRC:

restoring factors as
different.
Please ensure calculations by

density of back fill and take
earth pressure force acting at
0.42h from bottom.
Sample calculations are show
by considering 3m height of
backfill. It shows that dry with
