I will design retaining wall structural plans and site drainage
David
About this gig
Failure to design for soil pressure, water weight, and sliding causes thousands of retaining walls to collapse every year. Because of this, building departments strictly review structural submittals. I specialize in providing permit-ready retaining wall structural blueprints and civil site drainage designs tailored to pass strict city plan checks.
What This Gig Covers:
- Structural Stability Checks: Detailed calculation reports verifying resistance against overturning, sliding, and soil bearing failure.
- Reinforcement Details: Precise structural CAD layouts detailing rebar matrix schedules, footing dimensions, and masonry/CMU/poured concrete wall sections.
- Hydrostatic Pressure Relief: Engineered drainage layouts specifying gravel backfill zones, filter fabrics, and weep-hole or perforated pipe exit pathways.
Deliverables: Formal Structural Calculation Report (.PDF) and Layered AutoCAD Blueprints (.PDF/.DWG).
Protect your property and get permitted. Message me with your wall height and soil type before placing your order!

FAQ
At what height does a retaining wall legally require engineering?
In almost all jurisdictions under the International Building Code (IBC), any retaining wall that is 4 feet or higher (measured from the bottom of the footing to the top of the wall) requires an engineered design and a municipal building permit.
