ES - Swiming Pool Calculation

1. The document provides structural design calculations for an underground swimming pool, including material properties, loading conditions, bending moment calculations, and reinforcement requirements. 2. Key loads on the retaining wall include active soil pressure up to 8.11 kPa, hydrostatic water pressure up to 12 kPa, and a surcharge of 4.54 kPa from the ramp slab. 3. The maximum bending moment is calculated to be 35.85 kNm/m, requiring 5 bars of 12mm reinforcement spaced at 200mm centres along the length of the wall.
