About this detail

This cast-in-place concrete retaining wall rests on a continuous spread footing sized per the retaining wall schedule, featuring transverse and longitudinal reinforcing bars with a three-inch clear cover. The stem wall ties into the footing with vertical inside and outside face reinforcement and includes a Z-bar hooked into both the footing and the slab on grade. A perforated pipe drain and waterproofing or drainage mat are positioned at the exterior of the footing per geotechnical and civil requirements. The retained soil remains unbackfilled until the slab on grade is installed. A retaining wall schedule details type marks, minimum widths, footing thicknesses, stem thicknesses, and reinforcing sizes for various retained heights up to seven feet.
