Analysis and design of cantilever retaining walls are performed. The program automatically considers active earth pressures and adjusts the coefficients for adjusted wall dimensions, checks stability of the wall with respect to sliding, soil pressure and overturning, and performs the section design of the stem and footing, including the reinforcement. Various options allow for the effects of point or infinite and finite uniform or line surcharge loadings. The effects of infinite or broken backfill cases can be considered and also automatically adjusted for varying wall dimensions. The foundation can consist of a spread footing with an option for a key or a pile group. The pile group analysis can consider the effects of the lateral stability afforded by the subgrade.
