Retaining Wall Structural Analysis

This document contains calculations to check the stability of a retaining wall. The summary calculations include: 1) Passive lateral earth pressure calculations that result in a passive force of 5.4 tons and a factor of safety of 0.9. 2) Active lateral earth pressure calculations that result in active forces along the length of the wall and a total active earth pressure of 0.75 tons. 3) A check of sliding stability that finds a factor of safety against sliding of -4.727, indicating the wall is stable. 4) A check of overturning stability that calculates an overturning moment of 2.528 ton-meters and resisting moment of 3.772 ton-meters, resulting in
