I will provide retaining wall calculations and structural drawings
About this Gig
Stop risking property damage with unengineered retaining walls.
When a retaining wall fails, it isn't usually the concrete that breaksit's the soil mechanics and hidden water pressure behind it. If your wall stands over 4 feet tall, you cannot rely on guesswork. You need calculations backed by physics.
As a structural specialist, I deliver construction-ready engineering plans designed to handle active lateral earth pressure, mitigate hydrostatic forces, and pass strict local building department reviews.
Every blueprint and calculation sheet I deliver focuses on three structural pillars:
- Absolute Stability: I calculate exact safety factors against overturning, sliding, and bearing capacity failure based on your site's specific soil profile.
- Hydrostatic Relief: Water is the number one enemy of retaining walls. My designs integrate precise gravel backfill volumes, filter fabrics, and weep-hole spacing to drop water pressure to zero.
- Civil Site Integration: I don't just design an isolated wall. I plan how the surface water flows around it, utilizing integrated swales, catch basins, or French drains to keep your entire site dry.
Structural safety requires exact data.

FAQ
What happens if my soil type is unknown or poor?
If you don't have a formal geotechnical report, I will design using conservative, worst-case industry assumptions (typically Class 5 soft clay/silt) to ensure the wall is heavily over-engineered for safety.
