PCC Retaining Wall From Km. 0.000 To Km. 0.375) : B e B F P

This document provides details of a retaining wall including dimensions, material properties, and calculations to check stability. It specifies the wall's top and bottom widths, heights, offsets, and other geometric properties. It then calculates the vertical and horizontal forces acting on the wall at points A and B, determines the eccentricities, and checks that the maximum and minimum stresses are below allowable values. It also checks that the wall will be stable against sliding and overturning.
