  • In this video we will be learning about Retaining Wall. This video is divided into 4 parts. First we will learn about general types of retaining walls and its components. After that we will see types of failures in a retaining wall, then we will see general forces and behavior of retaining walls, and lastly typical reinforcement in a cantilever retaining wall.

    I was really having a hard time understanding the passive pressure (and when there is a shear key). I'm always questioning why it is not included in the problems we are solving. That's the problem we are just solving without understanding the principle behind it.
    Found this video and can't believe that the answer was just to be conservative in the design, that's it. I can't find my courage and time to ask my professor, and I always find videos to understand the concept much deeper but had a hard time finding one.
    I am really thankful that I found this video. The voice over is clear (but improvements can be made), content is simple and concise. Focuses on principles first to further understand the formulas(it is really helpful for us students) and the figures/animation really solidifies it.
    You're still 12k+ subscribers but the value you provide is already at a higher level. Please keep making this high quality videos.
    This "aha" moment just filled me with so much dopamine that I wrote this much. I can't believe it. Peace out.

    02:52 Different types of retaining walls and their failure modes
    04:15 The resistance against sliding is mainly provided by the friction between the base slab and the soil below it.

    Hi, quick question. How do we calculate the shear on the virtual front (excluding base) and shear on front of the base? I believe this is the horizonal component of soil pressure * tan(delta) however, I am unsure how this is then calculated for an undrained case where delta/phi = 0 (as friction is not mobilised) and instead undrained cohesion is used. What would the shear on the front/back be in this case? I assume we would use the cw/c ratio, but is there a part of the formula I am missing? Thanks!
