: A free-to-download software for creating wall profiles and cross-sections. It is useful for generating material quantity takeoffs for blocks and reinforcement, available at MagnumStone . Key Criteria for Your Design
: Enter soil type (friction angle, unit weight), surcharge loads (like a parking lot or slope), and wall geometry.
: A professional geotechnical suite that includes specialized modules for gravity and modular block walls. GEO5 offers tools for 3D visualization and 2D section stability checks. A specialized version called Redi-Rock Wall+ is available as a free tool for designing specific gravity and MSE walls.
: For walls under 1.5m, a common rule of thumb is to bury at least 1/3 of the wall's height and ensure the base width is 1/2 of the total height.
: A free program specifically for calculating sheet pile retaining walls, often used in professional engineering circles for its detailed theoretical help.
: The coefficient of stability against sliding and overturning should generally be between 1.5 and 1.7 .
: Designed for calculating thin-walled and massive walls according to specific standards (like Belarusian TKP and Russian SNiP). You can find more information on the Proektsoft site .
: A cloud-based module for designing cantilever and gravity walls. It performs essential stability checks such as overturning, sliding, and bearing capacity according to international codes like ACI 318 and Eurocode 2.
