Retaining wall.
Sketch a cantilever retaining wall. Explain simplified design of reinforcement in the vertical part of the wall.
Determine the design shear strength per meter of wall.
Determine the seismic design force (in pounds) for a parapet braced at the top. The concrete (150 pcf) parapet measures 4 ft tall and 6 in thick. Perform the analysis on a 1 ft strip of parapet. In other words, the parapet for analysis measures 12 in long x 4 ft tall x 6 in thick. The parapet is on the roof, so z = h. Use SDS = 1.0 and Ip = 1.0.
A continuous-strip wall footing is shown in cross section in Fig. P5.5. It is proposed that tensile reinforcement be provided using No. 8 (No. 25) bars at 16 in. spacing along the length of the wall, to provide a bar area of 0.59 in²/ft. The bars have strength f, = 60,000 psi, and the footing concrete has f' = 4000 psi. The critical section for bending is assumed to be at the face of the supported wall, and the effective depth to the tensile steel is 12 in. Check to ensure that sufficient development length is available for the No. 8 (No. 25) bars, and if hooks are required, sketch details of the hooks, giving dimensions. Note: If hooks are required for the No. 8 (No. 25) bars, prepare an alternate design using bars having the same area per foot but of smaller diameter such that hooks could be eliminated; use the largest bar size possible to minimize the cost of steel placement. 66"- 12" 27"- 27"- Wall 12" 16" Page 227 / 813 No. 8 (No. 25) bars at 16" spacing

Complete the preliminary design of the four-story library building shown in Fig. P12.5, using a beam-girder (or joist-girder) floor system. The first floor (slab-on-grade) is supported on drilled piers and serves as the reading and library services area. The upper three floors serve as stack areas (see Table 1.1). The out-to-out building dimensions are 90 X 150 ft, exclusive of the exterior facade. Columns should be spaced at approximately 30 ft in each direction. The minimum clear space between floors is 12 ft, and the floor depth should not exceed 24 in. Assume a load of 70 psf on the roof for the mechanical pent- house and a snow load of 20 psf. The building is enclosed in a self-supporting curtain wall that also carries the lateral load on the structure. The column cross sections should be maintained from floor to floor. Use f, = 60,000 psi and f = 4000 psi for the floors. Concrete with f up to 8000 psi is available for the columns. The preliminary design should include the initial…
