About this detail

A concrete tilt-up wall panel is supported by a concrete footing. The footing is reinforced with six number four bars lengthwise as shown and number five bars crosswise at fourteen inches on center. The wall stem contains number five dowels at sixteen inches on center and number four horizontal reinforcing bars at twelve inches on center, with two-inch diameter weep holes spaced at ten feet on center above twelve inches of free-draining granular fill. A concrete slab or grade interfaces with the wall at a variable height up to four feet maximum to the top of the soil, with a two-inch clear cover maintained at the top where a guardrail is anchored by one number five continuous top and bottom bar.
