Design of r/f to Earth Retaining Structure using EC2

(1) Cantilever wall slab


(a) Bending design

At ULS using gQ = 1.5, moment at the base of the cantilever wall,

M = ((0.5x11.1x2.22x1.52)+(0.78x11.1x0.39)+(0.5x1.987
x0.78x0.26)+(0.5x7.65x0.78x0.26)+(1.5x3x2.5))x1.5
MEd = 51.498 kNm/m

Assume cover to r/f = 40 mm and bar diameter = 16 mm

Effective depth, d = 300 - 40 - 8


= 252 mm

k = MEd
bd2fck
= (51.5 x 106)/(1000 x 2522 x30)
= 0.027

EC2 page 86,


Area of tensile r/f,
fyd = fyk = 500/1.15
gs
= 434.8 MPa

Z/d = 0.5(1+(1-3.53k)0.5)
= 0.5(1+(1-3.53 x 0.027)0.5)
= 0.976
But, Z  0.95d
Therefore, Z = 0.95 x 252 = 239.4 mm

As1 = MEd
fyd.Z
= 51.5/(434.8 x 239.4)
2
= 494.74 mm /m
EC2 page 76, 12.6.1,
No of bars required = 494.74 / (π x 82) = 3 bars
Bar spacing = 1000/3 = 333 mm
Max. bar spacing = min (3h , 400 mm) = 400 mm

Therefore, provide 16 mm bars at 300 mm.

Asprov = 670.2 mm /m
EC2 page 68,
Asmin = 0.26 (fctm/fyk) ≥ 0.0013

Asmin = 0.0015 x 1000 x 252 = 380.02 mm2/m

Therefore the provided steel area is satisfied.

Steel stress at SLS = (MSLS/MULS) x (As,req/As,prov) x fyd


= (1/1.5) x (494.74/670.2) x 434.8
= 213.98 MPa

EC2 Table 7.2N, 7.3N,


Alternative requirement to control crack width of 0.3 mm,
Max. bar diameter = 20 mm
Max. bar spacing = 225 mm

Provided steel area doesn't satisfy these conditions.


Therefore, provide 16 mm bars at 225 mm.

Asprov,new = 893.61 mm /m
(b) Curtailment of flexural steel

Depth, z from top where spacing of 16 mm bars can be doubled to 450 mm,
2
As(450 mm) = 446.39 mm /m
Corresponding moment of resistance is approximately,
M = 0.5 x 51.498
= 25.75 kNm/m
Considering moments about the top, by trial and error,
z = 2.38 m

6 2
k = (25.75 x 10 )/(1000 x 252 x30)
= 0.0135

As1 = MEd
fyd.Z
= 25.75/(434.8 x 239.4)
2
= 247.38 mm /m
Asmin = 0.0015 x 1000 x 252
2
= 380.02 mm /m > As1
2
Therefore, Asreq = 380.02 mm /m
2
Asprov = 446.39 mm /m

For fck = 30 MPa and bar diameter (f) < 32 mm,


Anchorage length required (lbd,req)

= 36 x 16
= 576 mm

Length of alternate bars including anchorage,


= 3000 - 2380 + 576

 1200 mm
(c) Shear check

At SLS,
Horizontal pressure at 'd=252 mm' from the base,
= 0.25 x [10+(20x2.22)+(10.19x0.526)] + (9.81x0.526)

= 20.1 kN/m
At the top, = 0.25 x 10
2
= 2.5 kN/m

Pavg = (20.10 + 2.5) x 0.5


2
= 11.3 kN/m

At ULS, VEd = 11.3 x (3-0.252) x 1.5


= 46.58 kN/m
EC2 page 40, 41,
vEd = VEd / bwd
= 46.58 / 252
= 0.185 MPa

rl = As1 / bwd  0.02


= 894/(1000 x 252)
= 0.0035
EC2 page 41, Table 7.1,
VRd,c = 0.53 MPa

But, VRd,c,min = 0.035k1.5fck0.5bwd


= 0.035 x 1.891.5 x 300.5 x 1 x 0.252
= 0.13 MPa < VRd,c

VRd,c > vEd


Hence, the shear is satisfactory.

20% x Asprov = 20% x 894 = 178.8 mm /m

Assume bar diameter = 10 mm


No of bars required = 178.8 / (π x 52) = 3 bars
Bar spacing = 1000/3 = 333 mm
Max. bar spacing = min (3.5h , 400 mm) = 400 mm

Therefore, provide 10 mm bars at 300 mm.

Vertical load on the heel = (1.0x0.33x25)x1.0+(3x1.0x20)x1.0

Considering moments about the face of the wall for the vertical loads and the bearing

Bar spacing = 1000/2 = 500 mm

Asmin = 0.26 (fctm/fyk) ≥ 0.0013
btd
= 0.26(2.9/500)
= 0.0015
2
Asmin = 0.0015 x 1000 x 252 = 380.02 mm /m

Therefore the provided steel area is satisfied.

At SLS,
Vertical load on the base = 101.861 kN/m
Moment about toe = 113.611 kNm/m
L = 1.115 m
e = -0.115 m
Moment about the center due to the vertical load acting on the base, (clockwise)
M = 11.75 kNm/m

Moment on the base due to the horizontal pressure (anti-clockwise)


= 52.728 kNm/m

Bearing pressure at toe and heel


2
P1 = -10.537 kN/m
2
P2 = 112.398 kN/m

Bearing pressures acting on the base slab,

1.83 m

-10.54
112.40

Bearing pressure at the junction of heel slab and cantilever,


2
= 50.98 kN/m
Vertical load on the heel = 78.25 kN/m

Considering moments about the face at the wall for the vertical loads and the bearing
pressures,
2
MEd = 78.25x1/2-0.5x(50.98)x0.83 /3
= 32.056 kNm/m

Steel stress at SLS = (MSLS/MULS) x (As,req/As,prov) x fyd


= (32.056/31.91) x (380.02/670.2) x 434.8
= 247.67 MPa
EC2 Table 7.2N, 7.3N,
Alternative requirement to control crack width of 0.3 mm,
Max. bar diameter = 16 mm
Max. bar spacing = 200 mm

Therefore, provide 16 mm bars at 200 mm.


2
Asprov = 1005.3 mm /m

(b) Shear check


At ULS, base pressure at the junction of the heel slab and cantilever,
2
= 43.98 kN/m
Shear force at the junction of the heel slab and cantilever,
VEd = 68.25-0.5x43.98x0.55
= 56.16 kN/m
EC2 page 40,41,
vEd = VEd / bwd
= 56.16 / 252
= 0.223 MPa

rl = As1 / bwd  0.02


= 1005.3/(1000 x 252)
= 0.004
EC2 Table 7.1,
VRd,c = 0.54 MPa

But, VRd,c,min = 0.035k1.5fck0.5bwd


= 0.035 x 1.891.5 x 300.5 x 1 x 0.252
= 0.126 MPa < VRd,c

VRd,c > vEd


Hence, the shear is satisfactory.

(c) Distribution steel


2
20% x Asprov = 20% x 1005.3 = 201.06 mm /m

Assume bar diameter = 10 mm


2
No of bars required = 201.06 / (π x 5 ) = 3 bars
Bar spacing = 1000/3 = 333 mm
Max. bar spacing = min (3.5h , 400 mm) = 400 mm

Therefore, provide 10 mm bars at 300 mm.


2
Asprov = 262 mm /m

For outer face

For crack control provide 10 mm bars at 200 mm each way.


2
Asprov = 393 mm /m

(3) Outer footing (Toe slab)

At ULS
Bearing pressure at the junction of toe slab and cantilever,
2
= 75.97 kN/m

Vertical load on the toe = 4.95 kN/m

Considering moments about the face at the wall for the vertical loads and the bearing
pressures,
MEd = 0.5x(123.95-75.97)x2x0.62/3+75.97x0.62/2-4.95x0.3
= 17.95 kNm/m

Reinforcement from the wall which is designed for a moment of 51.5 kNm/m will be
anchored in the toe slab and will provide the moment steel here, where the anchorage
length is 576 mm.

(b) Shear check

Shear force at the junction of the heel slab and cantilever,


VEd = 0.5x(123.95+75.97)x0.6-4.95
= 55.03 kN/m
EC2 page 40,41,
vEd = VEd / bwd
= 55.03 / 252
= 0.218 MPa

rl = As1 / bwd  0.02


= 894/(1000 x 252)
= 0.0035
EC2 Table 7.1,
VRd,c = 0.53 MPa

But, VRd,c,min = 0.035k1.5fck0.5bwd


= 0.035 x 1.891.5 x 300.5 x 1 x 0.252
= 0.13 MPa < VRd,c

VRd,c > vEd


Hence, the shear is satisfactory.

(c) Distribution steel

Provide 10 mm bars at 300 mm. (same as for the wall section)
